Our lives are inspired by the dreams we have from the earliest stages of our youth. When you combine passion and hard work, then success is always possible. While no road is every straight, dedication and persistence will always lead you to your dreams.

Back at it
Last night I spent the evening at one of the local bike shops learning about all sorts of bike related things. A very well spent 2.5 hours. I can now confidently change both my tires on my bike...no problem. Who knew how important a set of nail clippers and baby powder could be when it comes to bike maintenance? I could have spent another 4 hours there picking the guy's brain and having him show me every inch of my bike. He was honest and said the yellow cervelo needs some loving and I need to get her to him soon. She is apparently a legend, the very first cervelo in Saskatoon about 10 years ago and he has worked on her several times. I also picked out a new helmet that is super cool!! It is red and white (the same colors as the CSC Team...and yes, I had to ask what that meant!!) and has some funky stuff happening at the back. I look like the villian from the Spiderman movie!! Except he was green, but I will post a picture as it is very fun!! Does red and white go with a yellow bike? I will have to find an outfit that co-ordinates everything together... Got onto my bike this morning for 45 minutes. I was wanting to do an hour but could not get my a** out of bed. Going for a run tomorrow am and a swim on Sunday.

One of the girls in spin class, I think her name is Claire, has a yellow Cervelo. That colour is the most gorgeous yellow I have ever seen. I want the bike just for that colour.
That said, there was a high end Orbea , I think an Ordu, just assembled waiting for a new owner at spin class. Wow. I was afraid to look at the price.
perfect jersey for you :
