If last week was quiet and relaxing here in Spooner, then I should have seen this week coming. Not that it was too stressful or anything, but the inevitable list of ‘to-do’s’ always comes up before setting off on a month long journey. Near the top of the list were the mountain time trial at City Park and the amazing new Rock Lake trail outside of Cable. Then of course lower-priority things such as moving things out of the house, packing, squaring away auto insurance and getting new plates for the car and made it onto the list as well. Pretty much all of these various tasks have been dealt with; I just need to get into the bike shop now so I can hack about 1.5� off my bars before I hit any more trees. If I’m hitting trees in Spooner it would only be bad news out east so the chop must be done.
I suppose some of these tasks could have been taken care last week, but honestly when does that ever happen? Needless to say the past couple of days have been action packed so I’m looking forward to Big Ring on Sunday. And the month to follow should be one for the books as five of us set out across the eastern US in Paul’s RV for the North Carolina and Vermont Norba’s along with the Quebec World Cup. This ought to be quite the road trip so be sure to check in often for updates. The next report will be post Wausau so I’ll have a full recap.
Until then, Keep it Real. TJ
