The Tour of California Prologue stage was a lot of fun. I got to help out Ric at the FSA booth. It was a lot of fun talking with people about the new products they are offering and the Jumpsuit was cool.
A very busy day, I didn’t get to see the race at all but I saw a lot of cool bikes and the weenie dog count was at 3
While I was over at Paul’s yesterday I got a call from Jen whom I meet at the Tour, she asked me to build up a custom Grognard Cross frame she won at the 24 hours of Cool last year. She stopped by last night with her husband Scott so I could check out the frame and help her pick out her components. It’s mostly going to be an FSA build with a CK head set and Shimano shifting and brakes. The frame is a work of art with an awesome paint job, we’re going to have to get a Pro to Photog this one.
And it looks like my first roadie gig will be with the Webcor Builders Women’s Cycling Team at the Sequoia Cycling Classic next month. I’m really excited to be working with this team. They are not only the NRC #1 ranked women’s team in 2007, and the only UCI-registered Women’s team in North America in 2008, but a really great group of ladies. Working at the Bicycle Outfitter I get to see Karen, Christine, Katheryn, and Beverley often, it’s nice (and a little intimidating) to know I’ll be working with a team of this caliber.
I’m just going to enjoy the rest of my birthday off before the work starts tomorrow.

So ya, sorry I didn't call on your b-day. I could say that it was busy as hell around here but thats a lame excuse.
Anywho, I stopped in at Trail Head tonight thinking you still worked there for some reason. Tom says hi. It looks like your heading in a good direction wrenchin' wise. Me? I started a new hobby a few days ago. Lets just say you may be needed to true up my wheel (emphasis on singular) sometime.
wow, that's awesome. you have no idea how lucky you are with such rad racing going on around you like that- we're still buried in snow.
