For real. Your only safe refuge is the Manatees. Don't ANYBODY prove me wrong on that. |

Member 2689 Denver, CO | Subject: RE: Manatee Monkey Mentors SHUT (Poptart or pet pic bribes considered) Hi, Pod! Back from Ohio's Tour de Family I've Never Met and am I ever glad. I can only be nice for so long, especially when with Mom 24-7 and the 20 relatives I didn't know I had, before getting grumpy. My patience was definitely wearing thin after 5 days!! On the very plus side, had a fun run with Tom last night. He very kindly rescued me from Mom and her cousin when we couldn't figure out where the heck he was parked. What a relief!! So to catch up: Jonathan TX - Congrats on your new bike. Looks like a beaut! Remind me: is it a replacement or another steed for the stable? Erin - I can't do catch-up either. I'm definitely going to have to make one of those swim batons. What a great idea! Yanti - a RR?! Have things settled down so much that you got bored or did the food poisoning affect your brain? Matt - Tornadoes, hurricanes - if you hadn't left your bike key at home, you could've been a rider in the storm. Enjoy singing that for the rest of the day, now, okay? TJ - Hope last night's swim with the new trainer went well. Looking forward to hearing how things progress. Kate - Keep up the good work on your nutritional challenge. Sounds like you're off to a good start! Randee - Hope your ride wasn't as bad as it sounded like it was going to be! Kirsten - Speaking of songs....It's The Fi---[I think you know the rest]!! Hope it's going well.

How about we agree to keep the blackout for at least 24 hours after a stage ends? I'm in. Haven't gotten to watch any stages yet and it's killing me. Reading VeloNews just isn't as exciting. I'm so used to spending a couple hours a night every night for 3 weeks, glued to the couch (usually with sweat), watching men in lycra. Can't wait to get back to the yearly tradition!! |

I'm waaaaaay behind on it, too (something about the kids and Kim wanting to watch Teen Wolf - that and we've started the LOST series with the kids, and they love it - that keeps me from watching it at night… just can't compete, I guess!). And I mean waaaay behind - is LA still in the yellow jersey? Matt |

Replaced my entry level road bike with a nicer road bike for racing. Not quitting Triathlon but I am going to focus on bike for a little while and do some bike races. |

I imagine I'll always try to squeeze in a sprint or two. Gotta love sprints! |
