We get to dress up. I figure since I can't wear my tri suit or bike shorts all day I'd dress up my cube as a transition area. Hang up the wetsuit in one corner with my goggles and transition towel and all set up near it. I think it's funny but my daughter wants to slap me up side the head. Well I guess its a matter of will anyone else get it.... whats wrong with wearing a trisuit all day? And a Helmet, wrap around sunnies, sneakers and of course a race number just for full effect  Hmmm whats the dress code? (i know I can find a way) Not even on Halloween? |

I want a bike company to adopt me... yeah a good ride is like crack... I cant wait to take out my bike tomorrow to see if its any less clunky after a service... If not I have three options: 1) Save for a new groupset 2) Save for a new bike 3) Ignore the fact its not a brilliant ride and save for something else instead... like a holiday |

If you bite the ends off you can drink hot chocolate or coffee through them and it makes them all melted chocolatey... Its an Aussie thing I learnt after I moved here... |
