wow I've had a lot going on lately. no blog for a few days, weak. we layed sod this wknd. it looks nice, hopefully it will take well. Pics tonight. Strategic is there now putting up our fence, so the landscaping should be finished by week's end, barring any bad weather. Warm and dry has been the patter lately. We have all our windows open and are now dealing with gnats and flies in the house. Luckily we haven't seen large amounts of mosquitoes yet, but next time we get a rainy pattern, surely they will be out.
Just now getting over my cold, rode part of the F50 course yesterday and my legs felt like crap. Hopefully I will feel good on Wednesday. Flatted yesterday, so another UST tire is in the works before race day. The trails are super dusty. That will be a major concern for breathing on the first lap Wednesday.
