Texas ended early, and came back to STL. Tons of work done there and little play. I have been cycling more consistently this year and at a higher level than the last 2. Would still like to see that elusive cat upgrade, but just can't seem to get the points needed. I've added TTs, Track, and CX to the RR and crit activities which keeps me very busy.

The local tuesday training crits started today in Dallas. Based on my poor conditioning right now I decided on the C race with a couple of new teammates from the ICCC Dallas spoke. The course is a flat 3 corner, one sweeper course with a couple of "bad pave" sections just to keep you awake.

Got about 2 1/2 hour ride in today. Got in close to 50 miles with a group of about 15 riders. 70 degrees and light winds, and not a cloud in the sky. Ended up riding the last 10 miles solo after having to address a mechanical issue with the bike. the seat post was slipping on me and at one point I felt like I was riding a BMX bike.

I've been in the process of relocating to Dallas and have found myself in quite a challenging environment with the work thing. I have started to finally get in some saddle time.
