Soaking up the sunshine in Tucson

I am down in Tuscon with some of the Durango crew. I haven't been down here for about 4 years and the last time I was here it was with Kristen and Tom Danielson. That year we stayed at the Studio 6 and I guess it is kind of shady. Methlabs get busted their every night because all the rooms have kitchens so people get a room and make fried chicken and Meth. I came down with Alex Hagman and poached some floor space at the TargeTraining base camp with Crawford and Dicy Dub.

We had some lodging lined up, but it kind of fell through. Luckily some of the University of Arizona cycling team members hooked us up with some beds and we have a nice crib to hang out in for the rest of the week and aren't blowing a bunch of cash on a lame hotel room. We also have daily ride guides to show us the good riding. It is working out well so far.

I went to a local shop today and ran into Phil Zijacek. I can't spell his name. Anyway, he is already motor pacing and getting ready for the Tour of California. He wants to crack into the top 10. I heard he moved to Boulder as well. Another Boulder millionair. Dawg.

My camera is still broken so I have no photos. The weather is perfect here in Tucson and I can see why people move down here for the winter months. It is about 65 degrees during the days when we ride. In the summer though it is pure misery reaching 120 degrees!

I will throw out another update later that isn't so lame. The training is going well though now. Finally got my shit together and am on track. School starts next week. Get er donE!
