So, NEOCX just "dropped" the hint of dates for racing for the fall. This means I have a few really important things to do
1. Prepare to fail
2. Find annoying music to blare at the A group.
3. Come up with team drink.
All suggestions are welcome, I hazily read the comments.

Anyone around here got a spare steak sandwich?
Jerseys are ordered, cross bike will be up and moving next week. All in all no real complaints to lodge aside from the new crop of guys aimlessly riding around downtown, but that happens every summer no matter what. Finally got a computer with a hard drive so I can go back to listening to music as I can store things digitally. Crazy concept I know, right? A hard drive. I heard they work wonders.
So if you know me, feel free to advise me on new music. I'm pretty behind, but that happens from time to time to the best of us. How goes road racing this year? Yeah, I'm not paying attention. Instead I'm focusing my none to lazer gaze at cross. And by lazer, I mean shuffling looks in between Netflix movies.
Anyone start looking for cross tires yet? Yep, they're stupid expensive. Thinking of rolling on some Frids specials all season and not worrying.
Still looking for green bamboo. Can't seem to find a source locally, and shipping would be totally outrageous. Hrm, Oh well.
I'm all outta rambles, keep it rubber side down and don't eat the yellow snow.
mahallo

So....
The order for the kits is about to be finalized. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. What a pain in the ass though. Ugh. No thanks to anyone except Brian Roach. Cause he is the shit. I should also hope to have the new logos up by next week.
Hm. Nothing else new to talk about really. Get ready for the cross destruction and mayhem his fall.

I put my pants on one leg at a time. Then search like a motherfucker for my lost wallet.
Another early Sunday for this guy. Feeling pretty good though, the free shipping weekend at the steep and cheap sites has been fun to track, not many winners though. Figured out my crank problems for cross next year, still gonna go singlespeed even if it kills me. I'm just hoping its a division next year. Otherwise I fully expect to get beaten by high school kids and possibly one guy on a unicicyle. Jersey orders are monday, if you snooze on this one, you're dumb. because they're amazing. This year has been flying by for me, way faster than last summer. Soon it'll be fall again. Did we have a spring? Eh, who knows I'm babbling. Joy machines opened up on Friday, and I heard it was a smashing success, I could not come through yet, but I promise to drop in Monday. Went on a nice ride yesterday, got that done. Outside of that it's lots of work, work, work.
As my thoughts shuffle to brunch I tell you my two readers to have a nice Sunday, and get out there, the trails should be muddy as shit.

8:10 Saturday Morning
And here I sit, America's least read blogger trying to come up with something snippy to say. Sadly I'm all out of snark today, but filled with a dread for cross season. I know I'm not preparing well enough, I've barely gotten out on my bike to get in any base miles so I'm considering doing something stupid, and senseless.
Skipping road riding all together.
My cross rig is currently angry at me, and with the team shop opening next week I hope to get with the guys and get me the parts I need. I'm considering just going off in the woods instead of riding roads this year. I don't know if its going to help but frankly it's worth a shot, I mean what's the worst that can happen. I suck more than I did last year. I think starting soon I'll just ramp up the running and see what happens. I think between running and trails I can whip myself into some sort of shape. That shape might be round, but it'll be a shape.
Outside of that all seems well, I'm still plugging away at the job and enjoying not getting rained on. We went five days without rain/snow. Apparently that hadn't happened since November 2010. Hilarious I know, right? Gore-tex socks were a smart get for this year. Next year I'm getting a new shell. Mine is totally shot.
Worried about my gear ratio for next year. Maybe found a winner, maybe not. who knows! Eh, I can't wait to get dirty again.
