Dear Ankle--
You are officially warned (again). Stop hurting. You haven't given me trouble for three years--and that was when I was fencing regularly. What have I done to you? Behave, or we're taking you to health services. Talk to right big toe about how that went.

Dear Cycle Goddess,
can you please send me a magic faiery to take me home from the Tour de femme( If I ride) as I found out that the bus I could ride home on, doesnt start for another 20 days after! #$%^
I really cant( as much as I want to) ride to the bus stop, get a part way ride, ride to the race, race 22 km, then ride to the bus, then ride home from the stop. I tried that , by riding to work, then working all day on feet and then riding home. I almost threw up and nearly fainted 3 km from home. I really dont like that much.

And I swear I will never eat sugar again( I hope) if you will make me better from Chronic fatigue, for Aus Ride to Work day four days from now. I know I am allergic to it but its...its... hard! I really need to be better, as I am a sponsor, there is free fod in the park next to my work and I can check out all the cool bikes and hot guys legs, while I stuff my face full of bananas!!

love
your devoted follower

To the dear teenage boy who said, "Go granny go" as I rode by this morning. Thank you.

You're right. I'm old enough to be a granny. I'm overweight. I was in my granny gear. I didn't have enough breath left to snark at you.

But you've inspired me. One of these days I'm going to be a stronger rider. And I'm going to be watching for you.

Dear coaches, captains and mentors. Hope you're having a great time in Istanbul, while those of us trying to train without your guidance get ready for the Nike, Big Sur and Honolulu marathons. What would make you think it was OK to volunteer to work with the fall season team, then concentrate on your own marathon training and disregard the team. You canceled our track training sessions two months early, so you could go to Turkey.

I'm sure the Shoes and Gear clinic would have been really helpful to our new team members at the beginning of the season. Why is it scheduled for the end of October, when most of us have completed our events?

Yeah, I'm throwing you all under the bus on the end of season evaluation.

Dear Stinkbugs,

Dear work MGMT,

Whatever died in our office ceiling over the weekend - WONT GO AWAY! Its dead, it smells - why wont you send someone to fetch it?
I had to clean up blood, from that poor lady that fell down the escalator, BECAUSE SOMEONE LEFT IT ALL OVER FLOOR, smearing it with paper towels and hiding it with a fixture - ewwww!! I cleaned it up and I am not mgmt and not first aid!

Im not going up there and getting it out and if I have to, Im leaving it in the MGMT OFFICE!!!
I MEAN IT.
I love you guys but you suck.
