Speed Concept 9.5


This sucks. I officially have done nothing today except lay in bed, sleep, and eat. I feel like a lazy piece of crap. I swear if I get ONE MORE injury this season I'm giving up triathlon forever.

Who am I kidding? That's a lie. But honestly, this is dumb. I just want Dr. Jones to be in working order and my head to stop hurting. I also want the new Speed Concept TT bike in the window of Int'l Bikes...pictured above. I literally walk out of my way to stop and stare at it everyday. Sadly. It's even in my favorite color! I mean it's not my racing colors: black, red, and yellow..but I'd be willing to replace red with lime green...
Helloooo wouldn't I look great on that bike? Speed Concept 9.5, if anyone feels like feeling sorry for my broken ass self and buying me a $6,000 bike...
Ah...one day I will no longer ride the $1,300 heavy road bike bestowed upon me. Not that I'm not totally smitten on Dr. Jones, trust me, I am. But when I race and the only people passing me are on TT bikes, you can imagine it gets a little frustrating knowing the only thing that keeps me from the first place spot is my equipment. Just a reminder how unfair life can be.
It could be worse though...I could not have a bike at all. Then I would actually die.

Snowbasin 2/9/2013

FINALLY found a badass chica to hit the slopes with! YEAH! Yesterday the visibility was about 0 but it was a solid day at Snowbasin. I took my GoPro along with me and then edited it into a video that looks semi-interesting. That's Kate on the snowboard, the camera is attached to my head so you get a solid look at the fog and me falling a few times. Skiing/Snowboarding Movie

Weekend

As promised, here's a blog about my weekend - I know you've been sitting on the edge of your rolly computer chair waiting for it with bated breath. Friday after my guitar class, which went not-so-fabulously, as per usual, Chris and I had a little adventure to Harpoon Brewery where we met up with my ever beloved (and apparently much talked about) bff Dave. It took us a little adventuring and a little guessing to get there but we made it there and home with lots of "I have a hunch this is the way to go"-ing. It convinced me fully that we'd be great on a European back-packing trip together. We don't fight, we don't argue, we don't get frustrated, we just laugh and follow our gut. Which led us to beer! Isn't that what Germany is all about?  Anyway, Harpoon was awesome. You just go, hear about beer, and drink all you want. I picked up a growler of the cider - highly recommended. We literally guessed what bus to get on to get home and turns out it led...
