Helluva hole.....................

Outline of a plan IDEA

I do stuff often without thinking it through to the logical conclusion.  That said, Home Town Heroes is in a hole from the get go.  Our corporate underwriter from the very beginning decided at the last minute to .............. back out.  So, we're starting the season in the hole and about four months behind schedule.  So like the fool that I am, I came up with this "seemingly" great idea to do a sponsor jersey, that would allow us to offset a large part of what was lost.  Well............timing is not the best and it is a solid headwind right from the gate.

My friends at Hyperthreads have helped me put together a kit, with a tech-tee that will serve s the means to pickup sponsors.  There has been a little interest, but so far, pretty cold.  I'll have more information as to inquiries and how to get the stuff in a few days, but below is the general layout.

Somehow, I believe we'll make it work.  Time is short.

Riding again

Slowly getting the distance back on the road.  When I can't get a full ride down, I do a series of hill intervals, or sprint intervals right nearby. I've made some mods to the mountain bike, that will allow me to burn some steeper terrain with more confidence on the downhill.  I've got what I need, just not all the time I'm used to having.  Guess we'll find out what this sorry old dog is really made of before its all over.

Last night was a great ride; I mean the very ride I needed, up to Causey reservoir.  As usual, the last 7 miles home really seemed to go on forever, but I love South Fork.  I used to love fishing that with my dad when I was a kid.  Of course, that was when there was available stream access.  Still, just going up that canyon makes me feel like I'm almost twelve years old again.  The pic below is at the end of the oiled road, above the dam, looking toward the scout camps.

Call me sentimental.  Sometimes I still feel like I could be a hero............
