Getting Rolling

I have to get the kids to the track tonight as Myles is going to roll around on the track bike and see if he is comfortable enough to race it. I know that he should be fine as he has raced the road enough and that the kids fields are not that big. Just hope he keeps pedaling as that is the trick the first time you ride and race the track. Also I'm going to bring Mitch and Gage back with me as we are going to fit a night ride in tomorrow after the time trial. Just have been to busy to get a lot of night riding in this summer before the 24-9 but since we have been night riding for years Wed and then maybe a short one on Thurs should get the juices flowing. Then Thurs it is up to the 24-9 in the early afternoon and get things laid out for the races. Still a bunch of crap to pack and get ready but that should go quick and then get to the race. Should be fun as I'm doing it with Todd, Mark and Steve in the 4 man single speed class.

We handed out helmets to the little ones in West Allis last night for 4 hours. Always a interesting crowd when you give something free away. Parents with tattoo's all over the place, smoking and holding a kid and blowing the smoke the kids face. Men and women who wore shorts and should not have. The list could go on but you get the picture. The good thing was the Police officer told then no serial number from your bike no helmet and they listened to her. As when we told them they just looked at us like they wanted to fight for one. Still a good time helping out. Well time to see if IT got my notebook working as it was not happy to come back to work after the vacation. Later..
