Wow, It's Been a Long Time!

I somewhat forgot about this blog.  With Lotoja in 2 days it got me to thinking about past years and then I remembered, "oh yeah, I used to blog about my rides."  So I thought I'd check in, even if I'm the only one who will ever see this.

It looks like my last report was Lotoja 2014 so I guess I'll sum up what has happened since.  Very briefly.  So 2014's Lotoja's race has been my best so far.  I finished with a time of 9:38.  Last year (2015) didn't go as well.  I had a successful year of riding/racing in that I stayed healthy and had no injuries but I crashed with 20 miles to the finish in that Lotoja.  I hit my head pretty good and had some terrible road rash but I was able to finish.  It was long final 20 miles.  Finish time was 10:53.  Terrible.

This year I've had another good year.  I got a new road bike for birthday in January.  I've ridden lots of miles and raced as much as I could.  I finish The Ultimate Challenge again and did Tour of Park City for the first time.  I will now go for my 5th Lotoja in 5 years.  Wish me luck.

My sweet new ride.

Riding in Maui this year.  One of the years highlights.
