The above was a translation on how informed readers read my blog. So... if you can read this that means you take life too seriously and should subscribe to www.failmuch.blogspot.com. Plug plug.

I am "taping out" for a couple weeks.

Why?

Don't you see more European pros in our peloton? Take for example Shacks newest rider Matthew Busche. Has he won an Interclub race, a kermesse? Big race in the U.S., Europe? He has got some ok results but... really? What type of reasoning would you take to hire him to do Protour races? At this point I think Alex Boyd, Doug Swanson, Adam Bergman, Patty Cakes(the list could go on and on) are way more qualified. Not to mention riders I know in Belgium who have won real races with no contracts. Am I wrong, am I wrong?

What's wrong with cycling in America? I'll tell you, we call it cycling, but really it's not.

Matthew, good luck man and I hope you can trade pulls with Tom Boonen.

Why am I not on a team again?

Another good day

My first trip to Mt. Scott this year. I am hitting it early and hard. My first time up was 15:16 with no training, my PR is 14:50 my best the first year I was here was 15:50s. I plan on being under 14 by spring. I am glad this place is only and hour away.

Check out this idiot... Fancy pants and I were walking to my car when we spotted this and were ripping on this idiot kind of loud... Well, I walked back to my car to get my camera at the same time the owner walked up... we talked a little about how this happened... and then I busted out the camera. and he's like "you talking a photo?" and I though he was going to throw down the way he said it... Idiot.

Keep the dream guys! It happens!

So I was over at my friends place the other night with four of her sorority sisters (I know right.) I asked when the pillow fight was going to start. They told me they just got done with one and I missed it. Maybe next time.
Sorry Grandma, but the truth must be told.

Fundraiser.

This rip stop fabric from old bike banners is going to be turned into reusable bags 12"x8"x12". All seams will be double stitched and made by me with a lifetime warranty. The funds from these bags will be going directly to fund my airline ticket back to Belgium where I'll be racing on MBK Bicycle-Line again. I can make custom sized bags, padded laptop cases, belts, ties and condoms (no warranty on the condoms.) The price? What ever you want to contribute.


I am going to make this first one here soon. So if you want the "Fisher" one contact me.

Also, if you have access to old banners that aren't being used please let me know.

Thank you for your support.

Work or Play?

Training or riding with friends? Heavy weights or 12oz weights? 20ish hrs on the bike or 12? Biker rider or bike racer. Pro or Amateur?

At some point you have to be realistic and decide. I have already written off being pro. But that doesn’t mean I won’t be able to race and beat a few. 20 Hrs? Been there done that... you have to do it if you want to be fast so I'll do it. But this year I think I'll have a few 30hr weeks. I am also hitting the gym here soon. I would rather ride with friends but enjoy going out and riding solo for hours.

I am glad I still have a couple years left of school to really decide. Bike riding has been a great focal point for the last few years and has even helped me get through college. I'll be going back to Belgium to race next summer. Why? I am not sure... it's in my blood, being a winner, throwing my arms up after a solo break , no one in the picture. That’s a dream come true. Foolish bravado I know. Maybe someday I’ll win and when I do it’ll be worth it.

I have to get back to work living the dream. I won’t let you down.

This just in!

Next year I'll be riding for... cough, hack, sneeze, cough. Got it?

Leroy is so stoked!
