Mt Hood stage 1-2

Stage one pro louge GAY I miss my tt bike. Shit that bike was fast as hell 8th in a world cup time trail. Maybe next year I should be a tt specialist considering climbing sucks.

Stage 2

112 miles of 90 degree fun. I passed out at taco del mar after I found out the slip and slide I was promised at the start hadn't arrvived. Nothing really happened early in the race break got 13 minutes. I tried to bridge in it's early stages but nothing doing. Kirk our sprinter who got 2nd on this stage last year went down going threw the feed. Jared our guest rider and I went back to pace him back on. We caught back onto the back of the caravan after a few miles of hard chasing. He got to hold onto the side of the car to get his hand taped up. I tried to tuck in behind the car but got motioned by the officials to get out of it's draft I made it up to the Toyota United car and sat in on a descent. Then went full gas up the next hill and just tagged on over the top. By this time Health Net was in full war cry, and I had lil gas after chasing. I got popped when the attacking started the next time around up the KOM hill. Kirk myself and Dan ended up together and we just rolled in who knows how many minutes down.

Matt- heard it was absolutely brutal. Good luck tomorrow.
 
Slip'n'slide... nice. Maybe the lifeguard guy can get you into the waterpark when you get here.

Nice job making the best of it all in a tough stage. Keep cranking.
 
8th at a world cup? which one was that?
