I just signed up for the Mudslinger XC race on 4/1, no joke. I guess the joke will be on me, I put that I was a MTB Cat2 on my OBRA license when I bought it earlier this year. It means an extra 10 miles, DOH!   
At least I’m starting the #30daysofbiking in style!

In case you missed it yesterday, the Team Zendoughnut store went live.  It will be open until March 31st so get your orders in soon.

NOTE: You will not have to join the team to get a super sexy jersey. I will have some extras for the guys and gals who want to show their support. Also, if you were considering joining to ride and fund raise for some charities contact me. After the pre-order the price will be going up as I move the extras over to store.zendoughnut.com. So if you want a good deal, order now.

Hooray! my OBRA essentials came in the mail.
I almost fainted when I pulled it out of the envelope.  I thought for a second my number was going to be 1337 which we all know in Leetspeak would make me an uber hacker elite, but 5337 equals Seet in Leetspeak, which is lame.  I think OBRA is trying to say something here.  
Seet

A contraction of the word sweet, it is often spoken sarcastically and carries a negative connotation. The word conveys the most meaning when responding to a conversation that one simply does not care about, or finds silly and childish (Example 1). While the response doesn’t seem rude on paper, the word alone can make a person feel inferior and inadequate. Also, when used as part of a conversation, it can be used to show disappointment, or anger (Example 2). It can be used as an adjective, describing a specific situation, article of clothing, hair style, someone’s house or car, and so on (Example 3). While most users understand the sarcasm behind the word, some use the word as a replacement for the word sweet, and adapt it into their vocabulary. These people are called seetsters.
Example 1: Alex: “This weekend I got so drunk I couldn’t even speak English anymore.” Kevin: “Seet.” Example 2: Alex: “Hey baby, I’m not gonna be able to take you to that movie on Friday night anymore. The guys wanna get some grub and go to the game.” Kelly: “Seet, we’ve had these plans for two weeks.” Alex: “I know baby, I’m sorry.” Example 3: Zach: “Whoa dude, look at Alex’s jeans today.” Kenny: “Who does he think he is, Tupac or something?” Zach: “Yeah, maybe. Seet jeans Alex.”

I signed up for the LT100 lottery today.

In 2006 I was diagnosed with Cancer in my left sinus. I had a tumor the size of a baseball rapidly growing. That year I went through Chemo, Surgery, and Radiation to beat it.

In 2012 it will have been 6 years since healing.  To celebrate I’d like to ride the LT100 as a cancer survivor for those who are not as fortunate as me.

I am just a normal guy with an extraordinary history. I would like to show others that they do not have to be a pro racer to accomplish your goals. Anyone can do it.

That is why I signed up for the LT100 lottery today. In February I will find out if I was chosen to ride.  I hope I get in, race, and get the belt buckle. 

More info on the LT100 here, I plan on using the domain zendoughnut.com for the progress of this little adventure. Go Team ZenDoughnut!!

Crashing and winning is best.  Crashing and placing is good too.  Crashing and finishing feels fantastic.  Crashing is the reason I love this sport.

Ummm…I think someone needs to crash more. #MeNoLikeyGoBoom ;)

A interesting look at crashing on your bike.

My cyclocross race plans 2011

So the Cross Crusade caledar came out. Here are the races I am planning to do as a EM:PWR cycling racer.

October 2nd Alpenrose

October 23rd Hillsboro Airport

November 13th PIR

Then there are crazy ideas of going to the USGP in Bend December 10-11. Although that maybe just to watch. I am not thinking of racing in the snow. That is for crazy people.
