Mt st anne




Figured i would write about uci world cup at Mont Saint anne, before i forget. wow that was an amazing time. got to work with some really good mechanics, and gave me something to strive for. hanging out with the team guys was cooler then you can imagine. also ran into george ryan, i havent seen him since 10th grade. how crazy is that.

then after a short stay at the border (3 hours) i made it to genos place. where i spent the night. was a good time.

now im in boston, and the roads are horrible. especially if you drive something bigger then a car. so many fucked up roads with no reason behind them. almost made the truck a convertible. thats all for now.

more familiar faces in strange places

so im in sherbrooke, Quebec. thats right, french canada. Im at my hotel for no more then 10 minutes when i recieve a phone call from an old coworker / friend Mike. he said "where are you" i said "canada somewhere " he said " im in sherbrooke" i said "no shit" he said "yeah im standing next to your truck"

so here i am second night in french canada and i pick the same hotel as him and his girl Kelly. not only that but 2 doors down from their room.

we got some beers across the street, sadly they are leaving town tomorrow, but it was the most appreciated suprise yet. french canada really makes you feel like an outsider. i at least knew someone. and a suprise at that. oh well.

when i was in toronto, well outside of toronto, i went riding at kelso ridge twice. it was really cool, went riding with this guy Jay from Remy sport. i was on my Single speed. which is amazing and a lot of fun being the single speed guy and keeping up with shop guys. oh well. bed time. and some pics before i go....

long drive

Wow that was a long drive. drove from ann arbor michigan to clarksville maryland from 10 am to 6:20 pm today. 513 miles. not bad for 2 stops and road construction. Speaking of road construction what is the deal with any road with Turnpike in it always being under construction, for example the perpetually fucked PA turnpike, the "original super highway" I-76. and now we can add the ohio turnpike to the WTF. I came home mostly to pick up me Festina Watch which has been hanging around my folks house for a few weeks, and ive been itching to wear it. also to drop some stuff off at my house. Also ordered the new hollowgram sl crank arms for the truck so i should have those on friday ( i hope) before i head to toronto on saturday. well thats about it for now.
