Circles

I often feel like certain parts of my life are playing on a continuous loop, but Friday night there was actually a reason. The Waltworks Dreamteam hit the velodrome after work. For most of us, it was our first time on an indoor track with a 45 degree angle built in to it, and for some (me), the first time on a track bike. That would be a bike with one gear and no hand brakes.

I have to admit, it was kind of fun, even if I couldn't manage to stay on the tail of the paceline and added a few bonus laps trying to decide how and when to stop. I even got talked into showing up for the next six weeks for more training. It can only help, so long as I don't end up with splinters. Thanks to RC and Nick for setting it all up. At least now I can say I have something to do on a Friday night!

Thanks to Chris for the screaming photo of Fuentes that we've all borrowed for our respective blogs. Hopefully Megan's camera can be revived and we'll have more.
