I've gotten a decent amount of riding in this week. 4 days in a row. That might be a record since I've moved here. Yesterday, I went to the Starbucks meet the team ride. I am having trouble picking a team to join. There are so many! I really like the Starbucks team. All the people are really nice, and it seems like more of a community, which I like. My only concern is that there aren't many cat 1/2/3s for road (only 1 now, a few on the verge of upgrading), and I don't like racing by myself. They have a few 1/2/3s for track, though. They are also a slightly older demographic. It will be hard to find a team as young as my lovely Michigan team, though. ;-)
I've basically narrowed down my search to 2 teams. Hopefully I can make a decision in about a week. Today I went for a nice 30 mile ride. I went north and kind of guessed since I didn't plan a route. It ended up being really pretty. I am so lucky we have the Sound and the Olympic Mountains. Otherwise, I would have been very, very lost. I found some really nice roads, though.
Erin is coming back tomorrow. He got sent home early because he didn't have anything to do. We have been talking a bit, and it seems like things could work with some changes. We'll see how it goes. There is still hope.
Work is busy. Interbike is next week, and we don't have much planned. I'm pretty nervous about it. They also gave me a lot more responsibility, which I find kind of funny. Everyone always asks me if they are stepping on my toes. What toes? I don't have any marketing toes. I don't know if I wrote this, but I also finally got a real job with a real salary! They are clever. Once they realized how much overtime I was working (60 hours last month), they put me on salary. I don't mind, though. I work hard regardless of how I am paid. Plus, I'm making a lot more, and I have stock options. Can't complain.
