Now I'm not trying to say that Walla Walla is terrible or that I dislike my family in any way but the combination of people, crappy riding conditions and the additional stress of having someone else in the house all added up. I feel comfortable in this city (Portland) and as one friend of mine put it, "he got there and f***ing blossomed." End of story.
There was no particular reason why today was special but more a combination of small things, well just one big thing really. I got to spend the entire day riding and working on my bikes. I went out and got in an awesome set of intervals, the weather was good, I pulled off the cyclocross tubulars and started preparing the road tires to get glued AND I got to commute in true Portland style: surrounded by a bunch of other cyclists all enduring the pissing rain together.
Also, I picked up my new road pedals and rollers today (yet another 'win' for today)! I have a kick ass pair of shoes on the way so I'll throw up a picture when they come in. Until then, I'm in Portland, I'm happy and I'm riding my bike. Life is good.
I don't have a picture that would accurately represent today so how about I show you the new jerseys we're working on getting printed:
yeeeeeeeeeeeeah, school kit
