Thanks for the sentiments, Randy. Unfortunately, priorities have shifted and I lack the time to train properly right now. However, I've been enjoying following the progress of others locally and look forward to lining up with you again next year
Brady, dust that sticker for finger prints and you'll find the culprit: either Connie or Katy. And who could blame them - that near Hawkeye yellow bike begs anointment from an Iowa fan. Could have been a dreaded Sooner sticker. Ol' Dad
Thanks for the comments, Emma. I'm glad that you like the bike. You should comment more often than your Dad does. For one, your comments are nicer. And for two, you spell better than he does. So thanks!

So when are you going to actually race the cross bike? You should be out winning cat 3 races and upgrading.

ReplyDeleteEmma just looked at this picture and said, "oohhhh cooool", I'm sure Wes's girls are equally excited.
ReplyDeleteI love your bike! Emma is amazed at your work. I am Emma Shimonek and I love it so much!
ReplyDeleteSee Brady you have fans in the Shimonek House as well.
