Well all right, here are the designs for the new team kits and logo. I'll be rolling around in style pretty soon.

This year's crash



I haven't crashed this year, well, now I have. Not only did I crash for the first time this year, but I crashed on my left side for the first time, maybe ever. So now I have a hipper on the left to make me symmetrical again. Should I ever get tatooed up that far (or down that far, depending) I may have the artist go around this spot. Cause I'm just gonna lose that skin. Again, and again, and again.
But on a positive note, I rode strong and felt good. Funny though, right at 1h30, my eSoles started bugging me, like it was the first time I had ever worn them. I guess my new position changes my foot pressure. Weird.

Elite Bicycles- David Greenfield

I had my second fitting with David Greenfield today. After last weeks exercises, I came back much more flexible. I had no idea how much my ITB was holding me back. He gave me core exercises and ankle/knee strengtheners as well. I am amazed at what a week of HC stretching will do. I am feeling very good. Though my knee is actually bruised from the cross friction massage I was doing to my ITB, with the direct ice application. Ouch!
My fitting went very well, David made some very key changes, bringing my saddle up and forward, adjusting my cleats. I finally have both no float Shimano cleats back! I am stoked for that because I feel the connection is so much better.
Against his advice I rode for longer than 1h30 this morning. I'll post pics later. But it was a good ride, almost 2h30. Felt great.
