OUCH!

Well yesterday I was riding my bike down a pretty challenging hill, well its not really all that challenging but after not riding for 5 years it was challeneing to me... ok. So I was bombing down the hill when I slid out on a bunch of rocks and I went tumbling down to the ground... I have a feeling I blacked out, but I am not to sure. Well anyway my day was shot so I packed my bike in my car and went home, my neck and back were KILLING me. My best friend was ice, and a hot shower. It turns out I hit the ground a little too hard because my helmet was cracked and my rear rim bent... so it's costing me $40 to fix the rim and I have a old helmet I can use for now. So yeah I am out of commission till Saturday..... On the up shot I might be participating in a bike race in May some time. So I have a couple of weeks to get into racing form, or at the very least not die of exhaustion


That's all for now.

Till Next Time, Stay YEKNOM!

The Rush Feels So Good

Well as I told everyone in the last post I went and got my race bike all tuned up and the other day I took it out for a good spin. I miss the feeling of blasting down a challenging hill. You just can't beat getting outside and not think about anything but whats right in front of you!

So today I went out to the like bike path in Yorktown and just rode for a couple of hours. Not to challenging just needed to get out there and clear my mind, there have been a lot on my mind and I wanted to get some clarity and just rode. Boy am I rusty when it comes to wheelies, I use to be able to ride for miles on one wheel. Now I can only go a couple hundered feet... its a bummer but just wants make me want to get better.

I really got to find a helmet mount so I can take some epic moives lol.

Well till next time, Stay YEKNOM and stay in the light of the YEKNOM!
