OR by way of Harley!

Just got back from SLC. Another outdoor retailer show over and done. Hopefully all the orders will be in this week!! Got a crazy idea to ride my dad's harley to Salt Lake. Long ride, good times. Rain on the way home.

Only one week till the big day. I am excited to another boring married guy.

Watched the downtown circuit race stage of the Tour of Utah. Looked like a great race. Good support and lots of climbers. Nice to see Scooter pull of the win.

OR top 3.

1. Seeing the boys race downtown SLC.
2. Seeing "Flock of Seagulls" live, and they ripped it up 80's style.
3. The 9 corn dogs I ate while watching "flock of seagulls"

WSA Shoe show in Las Vegas!

It is show time again, which means Las Vegas shoe show. No offense to all of you who actually come to Vegas on your own time, but I will never set foot in this town for my own entertainment. It's just so cheesy and a huge waste of money, there are awesome restaurants and entertainment acts, but you have to pay big for 'em, and you have to endure the casino crowd.

Enough on Vegas. This biggest question of the week.... "What’s the story with Floyd?" I have no insider gossip; non-cyclists always assume that doping is an open topic among pro cyclists. The truth is, cyclists do not openly talk about doping with their fellow riders/ teammates. Cyclists are always competing against each other, especially within the team, you have to be ridding better than your teammates just to be on the start list for the big races, you have to be faster than your teammates if you want to get paid more, you have to be stronger than your teammates just to get a contract, so it is rare that a cyclist will broadcast their secret habits.

I do hope Floyd proves his innocence, but even if he does, his reputation will never be the same.
