i think i've been here before.
it has been a little while since the last post.
christmas has come and gone, so has 2011. alas, 2012 is here and now. i am looking forward to posting more stuff than last year. i have had lots of things going on and too many side projects and aspirations to keep much focus on any one thing and in 2012 i hope to change that.
my brother and i have both already registered for this year's Total 200 already too. it is a long ways off - the end of june - but i think it will be here and past before you know it. in preparation for this ride, and others, i will probably be posting more cycling related content. again, hopefully.
**also: i just switched to the new blogger interface so forgive me if my posts look a little jacked for a minute.**

you and i are gonna break it
with my lack of commuting via bike as of recently the only thing i can think of is how much i despise driving around town. people just can't get out of their own way and it makes me feel miserable that i am contributing to the cluster each time i get behind the wheel.

quality shapes
i feel like i've been beaten up.
rode the T4T Epic Ride yesterday. did poorly, time wise, i think, but finished. i am convinced it is due to my lack of training and my lack of time spent on the mountain bike, but i have no concrete evidence to prove that.
every year that proves to be a very well organized event, run by a solid group of folks.

business to discuss
here it is... sunday morning. sitting on the couch in my argyle sweater and boxers, wrapped in a fleece blanket and drinking coffee. there is a law & order re-run on the television and i have just made a cursory run through of some of my favorite websites. the boy and shea are still tucked away in dreamland.
in approximately five minutes i will be in the bathroom getting all dolled up for this morning's wheelmen ride. we're doing the alabama point loop today. the wind is supposed to pick up and it is cold (for florida). jacob said he was going to show up and i was trying to talk remy and peaches into showing up as well..... i would like it if they all showed, but since i am always in need of more operating income i would be better inclined to bet against their arrival just so i can make a quick buck.
in other news, i need to get up with my mom and bro to see how this recent spat of wintery northeastern storms has impacted them and theirs.
happy sunday!

long drag to the finish
this past weekend i was finally able to get back on the bike.
saturday morning i met up with peaches for an early morning love ride. it was nice and easy with good conversation and good weather. just all around good stuff.
sunday i participated in my first wheelmen ride since the hot heat of summer. we rolled out to hurst hammock and back with a +/-15mph wind out of the northeast. my legs felt great the whole day which made me even more excited to be back on the road.
on october 22nd this year's fenner mcconnell/matt wantz memorial ride will be taking place. a handful of years ago this memorial ride was the first century i had ever done. due to various reasons (excuses) i have not done the whole thing since then, which is a little regrettable, but some of my excuses are good. this year i plan to do the entire thing once more. fingers crossed.

pensacola cycling classic - 2nd edition
sunday i "helped" the awesome dudes from CycleSports bicycles at the pit tent for the crit race downtown. since we were being fueled by some donations from Pensacola Bay Brewery i actually didn't do very much.
the subaru team was out there representing as were a handful of wheelmen (and wheelwomen). a lot of these folks i will see again this coming weekend up in Dahlonega, GA when i meet my brother up there to ride Six Gap.
