I love the Gulf!

My first day was uneventful.  Went to meet some family members and another cute dog named bugsy, we were instant friends!  Mande took me to the beach this morning early to see what Dolly brought in!  First thing was this huge cliff Mande called a "little ledge".  I hiked all the way to the top!


We found this awesome pice of driftwood!  I did a couple yoga poses and paid Homage to the Gods of the Gulf.  My hands are in prayer position, you just can't tell.


Then I found this piece of wood and whittled this flute to play some tunes for Mande.  

Our self portrait!

This was not a funny joke.  Mande put me really close to the edge of this pond and then told me there were two alligators in there the day before.  She knows I can't run fast!!

Heading South!

Good Tuesday morning!  I am alive and well, no more cold!  I hope you girls don't mind, but Mande is taking me to Florida for a couple days.  I'm hoping to cruz the strip and get an airbrushed t-shirt that says "On Your Left"!!  I was ready 2 lattes ago to leave, I'm SO excited.  I'll be posting from down there, so check back if you want.

Outa Commission!

You may have all wondered where I have been this week!  I hope you were not too worried.  I have been a little under the weather.  Caught a little bug from Mande and we have been layin' low.  
My new best friends are: Nyquil, Puffs Tissue, and Lemon Lift Tea!!  


Today, Cally and I sat on the porch for tea time.  It was a little too hot for hot tea in the middle of summer in Atlanta, but the conversation was good so we toughed it out.  She is my new best animal friend.  I think I'll be back on the bike by this afternoon!  Good luck to all my teammates who are racing this weekend in Huntsville and NC!  Go MedPlan!!

Georgia Games!!

It was a wet day for the Ga Games.  I had to leave after the Cat 4 Mens race because Mande was my ride and she was actually cold and wanted food and some dry clothes!  But... the Womens race was all good, thanks to me once again.  I didn't bring a ton of luck, no podiums, but the girls had no falls in the rain and they finished (somewhat) together almost.... :)

This is me playing some sweeeeet tunes during the warm-up.  


I have all kinds of great advice before a race!  

I like to try and get really close to the pedal stroke just to scare myself enough for a little adrenalin boost!

I needed it so I could gain some courage for the trix I perform on my BMX'er.


Bringing the girls in....for 4th and 5th place!  Team MedPlan has the best looking kits out there!!  No doubt!

Thanks Trish!

Trish took some great pictures at our group ride!  I'll include the link.  This picture is one of my favorites.  

Junky Squirrel...

Don't get the wrong impression!  I had to send this to A&E for a reality series they are doing called "intervention".  We all know drama is what they are looking for so I had to be in character.  I can't stop looking at this picture, I look so bad ass!  

Little do they know, I'm actually addicted to cycling!  That should be a first for their show!  

Team Ride!

Saturday was our team ride out at silk sheets!  It was great to have all the girls together again!  I can't wait until the next race!!  

I was giving Lissy some super secret race strategy tips!  

I'm Changing!!  Can't a squirrel get any privacy around here?
