This Week/Weekend and Beyond!!!

Happenings this week, weekend and beyond!!

Well the week is almost over! We had just about every type of weather. The weather is driving me nuts. Seems to be taking the same effect on others too. Eugene Roubaix is around the corner. Are you EXCITED!!! I am….  hope to not flat this year. I know the GIRLS plan on putting the GRRRRRRRRRR in girl at this race!! It’s looking like we are going to get a respite from the rain, snow, wind and hail. The tan line I got at kings Valley is fading so I am stoked to have some sunshine in the forecast for the weekend. The usual crew will be out at Roubaix this weekend and of course planning on racing hard.

Shout out to Becka Hartkop as today 4/25/08 is her Birthday!! Happy,Happy Birthday Becka!!!!! She is the one with the flowers, and the Queen of the Valley. Pictured with her are from left to right Laura, Becka, Miranda, and Tina.

Jennifer Withers is going to be at her final college race before nationals. Apr 26-27 WSU/UI, Conference Championship, Pullman WA and Moscow ID. I want to WISH her a Huge GOOD LUCK plus all the other PSU riders. Collegiate Nationals will be in my Home town of Ft. Collins May 9-11 National Road Championships, Fort Collins, CO. Wish I could be there to see the action and say hi to a few Friends.

By the time table rock rolls around we should have a few other riders in Veloforma Jerseys. It may be the first time we can have the whole team together. Which would be awesome!!!!
