November 15th

These last two days have been really cool, really easy on the bike enjoying the California weather. My friends down in Indiana at IU are having a tuff time. The weather is shitty.

I have been in contact with you young man from Va, who is seeking some training advice from other sources beside his "coach" I really commend him for that because, like daddy always said, there is always more than one way to get some where.
This kid is 16 years old racing age 17 and his coach has him ridding 6-8 hours a week.
He also said he should do his endurance workouts on the rollers instead of hitting the road.

I just had to get that off my chest, it really baffled me why he would tell a 17 years old kid to train 6-9 hours a week, where the guys he has to race are training 20+ hours.

I just bought Madagascar for my daughter and she’s watching it right now,
I think I got her hooked. Her all time favorite had been Nemo and Incredibles. Between the two DVD’s I think we have watched them about 100 times. I don’t think that’s good. Maybe all have Dr.Eric Saunders give me some parenting advice. www.ericsaunders.com
