Farm Time

I have been having a pretty sweet time hanging out in central Maryland on the Gould family farm this weekend. The races could have gone a whole lot better, but some times that is just how it is. Now I have the goats and chickens and dogs to entertain me during the day and interesting roads to go explore on my bike rides. I have been turned on to Andy Goldsworth's art by Georgias mom and now I cant walk though a pile of dead leaves or old branches without seeing it in a whole new light. I even made a pile of leaves on the porch this afternoon, but it quickly blew away. The cabin I am saying in is rad, and I am even connected to the web so I can do stuff like update my blog and relax instead of flying across the country twice a week. It has been giving me very strange dreams though. Headed down to Kentucky on thursday. It is actually called Kentucy so I dont have to add the "ucky" on to the end to make it sound like a backwoods place, like Fontucky, because it just already is. I dont really know what it means to be an "ucky" as I have never actually been to the real Kentucky, but after this trip I will have a better idea of what all the "ucky" terminology is all about and may be better able to aptly utilize the "ucky"ization of words. Time for some more crazy dreams.

Travel

I am currently sitting in DIA, on my way to the east coast for the 3rd time this month. The race schedule has been pretty busy. Beating up on the world champ in New York, Chilling in Ohio and Now back east for the Granouge/Wissahickon weekend, then staying out for the first round of the USGP. I am really racking up the frequent flyer miles right now! So far the season has treated me well, I won 3 races and have been in the mix at all of them. It will be fun to get back into a more stacked field this weekend, and the GP should be Crazy. Trebon is killing it in Belgium right now so he should be fast, and I think we will do some more of the old Too Tall Tag Team Tactics next weekend. That is about all that is new. I am staying with the Gould Family this week in Maryland on their farm, so I will get to hang out with the goats and chickens all week. I hear there is some descent trail riding near there too. I also got a new car. The Bettle just wasn't cutting it lugging all my shit to the airport every 4 days so we upgraded to a Passat Wagon. Heated leather seats and all that. Pretty dope. I think I am about to miss my flight, so I am out!
