Happy Birthday???? Not so much

I have spent since this early Monday morning chasing leaks in the roof.... until it all came down. The beachside of Daytona has gotten over 26 inches of rain since Monday and it is still coming.

Police Memorial week

While I was preparing for the criterium championships in FL and the following week races in Texas, several of the Daytona Beach Police Department cyclists were wrapping up the Police Unity Tour. Over 1000 cyclists in Law Enforcement rode 250 to 1200 miles to the Police Officer Memorial in Washington DC.

Florida state Crit championships... went well

Third place was crying in his Gatorade and decided not to show up. In most races that means you lose your prize money for being a sore loser.
