The Weather Again: Just embrace it!

i'm still riding on my sunshine-y days with the bellas last weekend. i love riding my bike. damn.

i worked hard this week. i was covering for a guy who went on vacation (how dare him)... i stayed up all night wednesday-- emergency surgeries, and laboring mommies--

the weather continues to be bike unfriendly... but it looks like some sunshine~ mon-wed... and 40 degrees! yahoo...

i actually looked a prices for flights pdx to sac to race and ride with the team tomorrow... a little dilly of a daydream... wakeup!

i love reading oV and sabine's blogs... but it makes me homesick... whaaw...

sebastian and i talked about renting a house in santa cruz county next winter...

it's crazy, -- no more living from paycheck to paycheck 'cause Oregon is cheap (compared to CA), but i can't get a grip on the weather... or rather not riding my bike all year round...

tomorrow i am going to stop whining and focus on 'embracing all the Hood River has to offer'... so i am going riding in the rain. then i am going skiing (probably in the rain too)...

i wanna be like Gus (my 4 year old neighbor) ... he just doesn't know that riding your mtn bike with training wheels in the snow is just not right, or is it? (i wanna be 4 years old again?!)








thanks for listening to me vent.

hope you come 'sprak some single track' with me in the fall--and bring a case of 2 Buck Chuck.

Christimas Gifts



Just wanted to take a moment and boast a little about my Chirstmas Gifts...

First, Luca sat up on his own for the first time on Christmas.

We have a little video clip if you'd like to watch him... (prepare for the slot machines with that toy?!)



Santa brought me what every little girl wants, a pink bicycle!

... and a ski crash helmet... Santa knows me well.

Hope your Holidays were wonderful!
Happy New Year!
