Well it's been a while so I suppose I better pick this up again. With Mitch in CO with EXPO Racing I picked up on Twitter to follow their travels and adventures. Twitter is actually a good way to start blogging - gets you into the habit of posting things.

Mitch went to CO with EXPO Racing for his first ever USA Cycling mountain bike national championships. He rode in the Cat 2, Junior 15-18 class and finished a respectable 27th out of 50-ish. Other teammates had some exceptional days as well in the same class - Myles 15th, Nate 19th, Gage 23rd - rockin' the SS, Casey 37th. Brandon had a rough day and flatted.

From the reports here and here, the lads had a great trip. Can't wait to hear all the stories - especially Mitch's 1st foray into leg shaving in the wild... Apparently not too much blood loss but enough for him to be quoted as saying, "...I'll never shave again..." They get back sometime tomorrow...

Right now Jenna is having her 13th b-day party with 15 lively friends. I'm hiding in the basement!!! Dawne somehow manages to make it all work and survive - good for her!!! Tomorrow we'll celebrate b-days for Jenna, my sis, my niece at my mom's place. We'll also be celbrating long distance for my brother & Grandfather who won't be in town... Lot's of July b-days...
