my new love

I'm in deep.
Who could have known it would turn out like this?
I use to dread time spent on the saddle. Now, I'm looking forward to it like
it's my favorite of the three. How could that be? I'm a runner?
I have been bitten. Bitten by the cycling bug. And the more time I spend riding, the more I realize how much I have to improve.
This year, I became a part of a really great team. Trisports.com/Eclispe cycling.
Yes, I said 'team'. Cycling is actually a team sport. As much as I love triathlon, I have been missing the comradery of a team sport.

Last year, I was the AZ cat 4 RR champ. This year, I was the AZ cat 3 champ. Now, I have moved up to be a Cat 2 racer. Now, I will be racing against the pros. I will get my ass kicked. At first.
The rest of this year will be dedicated to Kona. But I also have a goal to become the best cyclist I can and see what comes of it.
