Rest day today.  I need to start packing my stuff for IMWI.  I'm also heading to Cincy today for a work trip and won't be back until Wednesday night.  I'm off Thursday and heading to Madion on Friday.  Good times.  

Bike is ready.  Race wheels are on.  Just need to put some value extenders on the spare tubes and I should be ready to rock and roll.

Was at a wedding last night.  Had a good time.  Behaved myself, only had 1 glass of wine and 1/2 a glass of champagne.  Was up late so I slept in a little today before going to get in a swim.  

Stop by Schmize's blog if you have a chance.  He was hit by a car while riding last night.  The moron hit him from behind because he "wasn't paying attention" while driving.  Scott has a broken collar bone, broke tibia, fractured ribs, punctured lungs and a ruptured spleen.  He also may need a blood transfusion if his counts don't come back up.  He is going to recover, but it was a bad accident by an idiot driver.
