I'm coming out to play
Breck. I'm gonna open up the account up at elevation. Totally different year. Totally different plans. Totally different prep.
...Open/Pro races? Maybe. If I feel like it.
...35 Open Races? Maybe. If I feel like it.
Opportunism and smiles. Ride for glory. Not points. Get back to why I cross. This is the season and those are the reasons.
The changing leaves are getting me happy. The fam will be bringing their cowbells. With each ring, a distance from the pain we felt this summer will diminish. With each cheer of my boys, a celebration that we are still alive will increase. With each lap, I'll remember why I do this. With each heartbeat, I will remember that I'm trying to do the right things while here.
Game on.
