Lost Highway

With another year comes another off season.  It is a time when teams, clubs, racers, riders race promoters, sponsors and bike shops all think about Spring.  They just don't think about it, they are obsessed with it.  Close the basement door on the previous season and open the bay doors to the one coming in so you don't miss a single gust of wind.

But not us.  Nope.  We take this time to find out about ourselves and the guys we ride with.  So this off season we traveled overseas to attend a week long Team Building Camp that will help us become not just better people individually but also as a team.

After a week of ups but mostly downs we realized the personalities on this team are like oil and water.  So the next best thing to do was enter the local Saturday night demolition derby to take our anger and frustration out on each other.

Despite all our differences, on Sunday morning after coffee and flapjacks, we were all able to hug it out and start planning our next team off season adventure
