Read your post this morning and this line really caught me. It's been a tough time for me the last few months. Amongst other things my partner was made redundant 5 months ago and I'm stuck in a job a totally hate , so we've both been a bit down. I like this line - next time I'm feeling stuck or bogged down I think this will really help. Thanks!
No problem- I've gone through my own tough times these last 2 years...
my job has essentially become redundant- as an industry- so no real job prospects...
I'm working at a crappy job in retail- you know the one- available 24/7 and fight to get 17 hours a week..
my marriage is on tenuous ground...
yadda yadda...building this bike- like it's gonna be bulit by November now!!! and cycling are my saving graces right now.
Which makes it doubly hard when I hit a slump.
I remember reading a statement- I can't remember from who, which said- if you try something you are guaranteed to fail some of the time...but if you DON'T try something you are guaranteed to fail 100 percent of the time...

so- I just shortenened it!
>: )
but it truly struck me as how totally right on that statement is.

Hey- if we stick together, we'll all get thru life's slumps, right??

looking forward to mountain biking in the Brant Tract tomorrow- if only it doesn't RAIN!!!
