Like the words to that old song...." I am back in the saddle again". 18mo off does takes its toll to the tune of 35lbs. It is much harder to ride when you are fat...except cornering. Having a little extra weight to toss onto the crank when in a high speed corner is pretty cool. My normal race weight is 134lbs if you are doing the math that puts me at 169!?!? Plan is to shed the extra hip doughnut by march of 2007 and then single handedly dismantle the world domination of the Seiena Development team.
Sorry for all the spelling errors...it is tough to type and eat my jelly cruller.
