Soldier Down



Sometimes nature has his/her own way of letting us know it is time to slow down. Lately I felt like a 27 year old stuck inside an 80 year old's body.... I guess this was nature's way of saying "time to take 'er easy".



I guess it is inevitable.... a trip to the ER that is. When you are out doing what we do everyday it is only a matter of time. I have been blessed in my career to have a pretty weak collection of scars. Well today I picked up one more and signed up for a week on the couch with a Sex and the City marathon.....

I've been dealing with my own knee injury this past week. It sucks.

I hope you heal up quickly.

Ewww! Did you get attacked by a mountain lion? That'd be a good story. Good times watching you race at Angel Fire. Hope you're back in the saddle soon.

I think cyclists like taking their picture in the ER. I have an almost identical picture of my knee looking like that(which I consequently couldn't bend for 2 weeks, hopefull you'll be ok!), and on the stretcher... Hope you feel better!

That over-head spot light must have been bright. Good thing you had the shades on.
