Mark It 8, Dude!

Just got back from a heated bowling session down the road at the lanes. The Big Lebowski quotes were running rampant. Good times though. One of the idiot juniors, that will remain nameless, decided he would try to jump the sensor for sensing "over the line" offenses and onto the lane after he let the ball go. he didn't realize the lanes were waxed up real nice and ended up parallel to the lane and body slammed himself from about 4 feet in the air. Looked painful, but he tried to act like it wasn't.

Today may have been the warmest day we've seen so far, which meant melting snow and slushy mud for our inter-squad training race down by the canal. Trebon came over to the house, hung out for the day, did the race and then showed us some good routes in the area. We ended up getting in some good hours on the bike by the end of the day.

Yesterday we had Jonathon Page's Sport Psychologist, Mindi Wisman, come to the house to give us a talk. It was interesting, with some good stuff to take away. I've always been pretty fascinated with the power of the mind.

I've been trying to think of interesting content for the blog, and thought I might do a video walk-thru of the house and mechanics area here. That way all you guys back home that actually care what it's like, can have the next best thing to actually seeing it for yourself.

Also, I just submitted my Cyclingnews Diary tonight, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
