its been an odd few months for me- for a few reasons I all but quit cycling for a while (actually now Im again off the bike for the near future) didnt touch my bikes- I didnt even follow a minute of the Tour . . . I weigh more today than I ever have in August (actually more than I EVER have)

while I was gone I had a few dear friends from this place who would not let me just go away- they listened when they needed to - and offered advice when that was needed too-

now I have the desire to ride again . . . but sadly not the ability at this time . . . about the time fall rolls in I should be fine

so anyway . . . I guess Im really just saying that I missed this place and the great people I have met along the way

to the friends that stuck by me (you know who you are) THANKS!!!

Ill be seeing you on the road soon
