Hey there Brandi... I hear you girl... although not completely off my bike, I have been finding it very hard to get in any road miles at all... alot of my evenings are grabbing a few minutes in the paddock after work, or hopping on the spin bike while the family eats dinner and then eating late.

Very, very frustrating, but its just a very busy term and I have no time 'left over'. I did get to two races last weekend and have been building (if you can call it that) for one this coming Saturday... but boy has it meant some compromises in terms of work and family to cram everything in.

After the TT this weekend, I think I'll call my business a "taper" and set some time-on-the-road goals next term.

Heck, I haven't even been in here for what? 4? 5? 6 weeks? (And only here now cause I can't sleep - its 4am DownUnder)
