Congratulations!!!!

And good luck Ariel. I know you'll do great.

I too know that feeling of doing NOTHING else all weekend. I just came off a "high volume weekend." 30mi sat, 120 mi sun, and 30mi monday morning. Ugh, 180miles in 3 days! But what ELSE did I do this weekend??? Um, I watched a bike race, does that count as something else? Yeah, didn't think so. Other than that my off the bike time was spent eating, sleeping, and laying on the sofa watching tv :-)

Nonetheless (and I mean, despite the dishes still in the sink) I feel like I accomplished something this weekend! And here in chicago, there won't be too many weekends left where I can ride that much (it will start snowing, whether I like it or not), so I am going to enjoy the good whether while I can!
