Today I'm back in the Bay after a whirlwind LA bikation for the Marathon Crash race.

**** was insanity. Finished top 50-70 (somewhere in there). Buddy and fellow WPH SF founder, Zach, was in the top 10 overall - he's a beast.

Today my professor rescheduled our midterm with 3 1/2 hours notice for the second time. Luckily I didn't want to "celebrate" St. Patrick's Day or I'd be doubly pissed.

Dude needs to stop throwing sticks in the spokes of my week. At least I have some time to waste to work on my capstone, which has been a total failure up to this point.

Can't be sure from the pictures, but I don't see any crimping on the tubing, the frame might be salvageable.

Today I went to a trade tasting, afterwards to best buy- picked up a go pro handlebar mount because my friend let me borrow his gopro 2. He rarely uses it. Scratched the screen a bit on the top left corner, but still very usable. Hopefully his rich ass will get the 3 and gimme this one

I wish the weather was nicer so I couldve rode a bit today...STUPID WEATHER!
