Tour De Guh!
Just Squawking 2 Comments »We just finished the first stage of the Tour de Georgia. It as pretty fast and a bit dicey at times. I tried my hardest to go with some moves and get into “the one”. Didn’t happen. A few moves looked pretty good, and then they were just to big or not going anywhere. Stayed out of trouble and tried to help out the teammates at the end.
The Tour is awesome. The Georgia fans are so into it and big supporters of the team. I love this race and am very stoked to be here mixing it up with the big boys. It is nice to have one Tour de Georgia under my belt and know what to expect.
We have been hanging out on Tybee Island, the furthest Eastern Point of Georgia right on the ocean. Our Hotel is right on the beach, I can see the waves crashing and watched the full moon out on the water. Pretty nice for a bike race.
Anyway, lots has happened since the last update. I will sum it up in a few short sentences. Went to El Paso and did the Tour de El Paso and got 2nd in everything. Good weekend of racing and dipping sauces. El Paso has a dipping sauce that they serve with every meal. Weird! Always trying to force the dipping sauce on you. Outside of Las Cruces going through border patrol there was a drug bust that looked like it was out of the movies. The Cops had an F-150 completely torn apart with all the dooor panels off. Inside the door panels were bricks of drugs. It was crazy! They had a few shopping carts full of drugs that they pulled out of the car. Someone is doing some time in the pen for that and will probably get hand-shanked. Bummer! That’s it. Will try to get some photos up here at Tour de GA!
