Learning the ropes

Well I haven't updated in awhile and I apologize for that, however I have some fun things to report. First I took my hiatus due to a 24 nasty bug that really felt like the flue for sure. However, after taking slamming meds as if my life depended upon it and 13 hrs of sleep later I couldn't have felt better. I still think that it was the flue and I caught it early. Sooo after that it was time to get back on schedule. Next I believe was taking Danae up flagstaff. She was a bit struck by the altitude, coming from new Zealand and all but she still tried to sprint me a few times. Now this ride we both figured out something.If you are going to climb into the mountains where there is any fog whatsoever then bring gloves and whatever else out of your Antarctic gear you have because it was miserable coming down. I had the speed wobbles just due to my uncontrollable shaking. I had frost on my eyebrows and eye lashes along with my shins. I lost feeling in my hands and could hardly break. Now if you think this is the end of my whining tale its not, that came after 15 min of shivering under my blankets after I got back. Damn that was cold!

Next on the agenda was the CU football game!

we lost. Even worse to a 2A school that we shoulda whooped their ass's!!!!! GGGGRRRRRRRRRRR. But anyway it was fun as hell. I believe CU has the most brutal fans, well maybe not but pretty close. Besides the CU fight song, all the cheers seem to be along the lines of ef them up or we effing hate MSU!!!!! And when I say these were the cheers I mean it, everyone and their grandmother were singing along. I bet the boy scouts were too. Hopefully our team will shape up as the year really gets going.

The night after the game was fun but the next real adventure came today. I decided the redeem myself from the previous days festivities so I went on a killer ride recommended by da man . It was fun!!! Killer climbs, awesome scenery, nice people along the way and one hell of a workout. Ill finish my blurb today with pics from my ride today. Sure not in Austin anymore, no offense of course.
