So, after a good time off the bike, I am ready to get back into this! I’ve been working feverishly to get sponsors for our team. I know that it’s almost getting too late to get artwork to jersey manufacturers and securing sponsors (and hence spots on the jerseys) which is making the time go even faster!
On a personal note, I was recently (well 3 mos ago) promoted to Product Manager at my company so that has proven to be quite a task. I had to give up one of my classes with 24Hr Fitness as a cycle instructor to deal with the added travel of my new role. Don’t worry – I’m still teaching Thursday evenings at 6:30 in Carrollton so come on by and ride with me!
Also, I have rewarded myself with my first carbon bike! Yes, after 4 years with the same Orange Motobecane Sprint, I’ve decided to bite the bullet and get a new one. I can’t wait for it to get here – hopefully sometime in February (just in time for some early spring rides!).
Anywho, I am looking forward to another great ride with Bike MS. In two weeks, we’re having a captain’s meeting, and already cannot wait to hear what the other teams are doing out there to get their crew motivated!!
