It's heartening to know it's not just me being a middling bike rider. It happens to us all; a lot pretend that it doesn't and blame all sorts of things rather than doing what you have done in taking hold of it and working with it.<br /><br />This meet has obviously given you so much: not just medals, but more knowledge about racing track, and about you as a track racer. Take it to the next level now girl. World Cup is yours!<br /><br />Hope to see you in Melbourne!Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08758656991029222932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3832036100007844489.post-52411461792319114192009-10-06T17:53:23.928-06:002009-10-06T17:53:23.928-06:00DAMN!
