The life of a cyclist

Here is a link to some footage from the French National team training in the Caribbean:

Lightning Velo Cycling Classic

My first race for 2007 was at the Lightning Velo Sprint event. It seems as though everytime this event comes around I'm usually ill. I only rode because my 'good' friend, Travis started to call me names because I was not going to race; I had a fever and pretty much felt like crap.

Anyhow, I did 12.0 in the 200M, a horrible time especially on a 92" gear. My first ride was against some Polish cyclist. That whole race seemed like a big blur but I held my ground. He passed me on the apron and was DQ'ed. A technical victory.

My second ride was against Travis; my friend, training buddy and I consider him a brother. No need to describe the ride, he won. I thought it was my last race but no, I had to ride the 5th - 8th ride. All I wanted was for the day to end. I felt like crap and wanted my bed. I placed 7th, I think.

So, one week later and no training, my venture to the track continues on Saturday 3rd February. Lots of cool projects coming up and more will be posted shortly.

An eventful weekend

What a great weekend! World Cup cycling at the velodrome, my daughter working at the event; very organized and structured I must say, and I made some headway with regards to becoming a USCF official. The experience with working with the UCI officials was more than I could have asked for.

I feel great at the moment, fully recovered and getting back to the basics of work and training.

Video footage will be posted shortly.

Sprinting at the Encino Velodrome

Here's a pic of me sprinting at the Encino Velodrome. I qualified 1st with a 12.0 sec time for the flying 200M.

My Space

So, I finally caved and created a MySpace account. Nothing much as yet. My good friend and co-worker, Raya invited me.
