Packing + Green Mountain Stage Race

Packing. 
 - It's awful. Especially when you have to plan for a five week bike tour and a stage race. At the same time. Miraculously I'm in the airport and everything is all planned out. 
 - This state of "planned out" was preceded by about a week of panic. I.E. throwing things in bags and hoping for the best. 
If Panicking is the plan then I'm sure as shit planning ahead.
 - 




Other news 
This bike is gone. Really, it was just a vessel for suffering so I'm glad to see it go. Some other lanky male can enjoy it for a while. Bye Bike. 





This is the next one. 

 - I'm pretty excited for this one. Mostly because it's in Vermont. Vermont is crusty yet great. 
 - I first rode for Rio Grande at this race last year. I was in the break everyday and more or less got my ass handed to me. This year I'm going as a team leader. That's pretty neat. 

A quick race preview. 

Stage 1
The Start is at this scenic barn. In the Fall. 

Then
We finish in some beautiful town that probably looks like this. Still Fall. 

Stage 2 +3 = Probably the same. 

Stage 4
Downtown Burlington Crit. Burlington is a lot like Boulder but it's colder.
 And there's a lake. 
The people are more hippy(ish). 
Less entitled. 
But it's Colder. 

*Not a Poem it just happened to rhyme so I put it in different format.*

I'll try to update throughout the race. As long as there is internet. 

Thanks for readin'
