Spinning the night away

Today we went down to Racine to do the Friday spin class with Gordy. I called Russell to see if he was going to come and do the spin class also. He declined saying something of his ( pussy) was hurting. He is still sick from the trip to Bumfuck town to work for the man. I agree with Cooop that eating that raw fish and then in Russell's case mixing it with some work has his body all messed up. After a few weeks of work I think the rejection of the work should settle in and his body should be back to it's sick old self.

At the class I had Nate just spin on the bike to loosen his leg up. He has a good size bruise on his thigh and the knee has a bruise on the side also. He must have felt ok as he played football at school. He still is a little stiff and moving slower then usual but looks way better today then last night. He said he will be ready for the races this weekend and looking for a couple of age class wins. Boy what a time for a crash, nothing like a kick in the junk and then having to ride and race the next couple of days. For a 11 year old kid he sure is as tough as nails and he just sucks it up and goes on. A couple of racers we all know ( Wheezer) would be crying and taking time off. I know Nate will be just fine at the races this weekend and pushing it to the finish and never giving up. What a good kid.

We are racing both Sat and San at the bmx track so if bored come and watch. Sat racing is at about 4pm and Sun it is at about 12:30. The registration is 2 hours before with gate practice and racing after.

Maddie had a good spin class tonight also. She has been working on her form and kept her knees in and the heels down. That is something we have been focusing on in the workouts in the basement each day. She is looking better each week. She is also looking better at the bmx track each week also. She can't wait to get there and ride. Now I have to get her to try a race, but I'm not pushing her to that yet. I will just let her tell me when she is ready and I hope to get her top try on at least once before e the end of the year. I will take her bike to the races tomorrow as Cece is coming to watch and have Maddie take a few laps for Cece to see her ride. Time to go and watch the rest of the Olympics and go to bed. Later..
