Get dirt

I took this picture two years ago at the USGP in Portland. Which, by the way, was the last time I did a proper cross race. I’ll be making my grand return to the amateur cross scene next weekend at Starcrossed and Rad Racing in Redmond. My expectations are modest as I’ve more or less piled out the last 4 weeks. My enthusiasm for road racing reached an all time low this August, meaning whatever “engine” I had developed over the summer is by now likely crippled. It’s tough to keep it up these days. Competitive cycling is bloody demanding and I’m kind of a lazy dude. Anywho. I’m gonna pick up a couple “loaves” of american cheddar on my way home as reward for my hard work.
