GONNA BE A ROCKSTAR

Well maybe not quite a rockstar...we'll see this Friday evening when I get my debute on Belgian National TV. The truth of it is that it has been a pretty eventful week around the Cycling Center. With all the classics (big time races...Tour of Flanders, Paris Roubaix) going on in the area there has been quite a bit of hype. We have some of the Navigators team staying with us as well as a few other P-R-O's. In addition, the media has been showing up, with its focus around us...not the "PRO's"

Today I got to flaunt my good looks (you all sould be laughing right now) in front of the cameras. A few interviews, some action footage on the cobbles, and even me sharing some of my mechanical expertice (say it with a french accent)! Oh, and if any of you actually ever see it and somehow the part where they start to ask me questions about past and present winners of Paris Roubaix....um just disregard...I though they were talking about the Tour of Flanders...or something...um yeah...I gues you would have to also know that the interview took place before this years Paris Roubaix, and if Boonen wins this year...then it will all make sense and this last paragraph will be useless. Still, with me?? Don't worry if your not, it REALLY doesn't matter.

Look at it this way, when I get to race against a bunch of Belgians after being on their national TV...well lets just say it probably won't be a loving relationship.

Just a side note: I think working in a lab all winter turned me into a wus or something...I got a stupid blister on my hand while riding the cobbles for the photo op. yeah, wus, I know!
