My bike was wearing white WAY before Memorial Day


Last week we (by we, I mean Jeremy) put on my new grips!!!  And they are everything that I want for racing. Plus, they are super comfortable to boot. And personally I think the white looks freaking awesome on the bike....

Not that I'm trying to be all matchy-matchy or anything-ha ha!

This past week was pretty great. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but the weather was amazing and I had a ton of fun on my bike. This week I'm going to be gearing up for my next hundred miler. Hopefully for the sake of my white grips the course will be bone dry. Believe it or not, I am still finding mud from Dirt, Sweat and Gears. 

Most (actually all) of my training has been on the bike pictured above and I've officially decided that it's going down to Ohio with me. It needs to race!!! And speaking of racing, the big races are slowly coming up. Lumberjack is right around the corner and I'm going to have to represent since it's in my home state :-) Shortly after that Scott and I will be going out to Colorado for 2 weeks, which I am very, very, very excited about. I've only visited once, and it was for a day, so I'm going to have to cram in a lot of stuff. Then it's back to Michigan to hammer at Ore to Shore and then I'm road tripping down to Georgia with you-know-who for the Fool's Gold. We all know what happens when Namrita and I do long bike rides together, but we've never done a car trip before. Search parties should probably start organizing now....

Last but not least, congrats to my hubby for pulling out another win this weekend at the Bloomer XC. He's too busy writing about more important things on his blog, so I have to do the bragging for him :-)

Won't be white for long (remember dirt, sweat and gears?)!
