Let me see if I get this straight: You went to Mexico and even though the race organization left much to be desired you still managed to quyalify? Sounds pretty impressive to me. Congrats! My weekend was not nearyl as impressive; I qualified for the slow pale-legged guy out on the road award. I didn't have to worry about my kids or dealing with them after the ride, however, as they al;awys try to leave the state whenever I am in the ole bike shorts. On balance, however, some riding is better than none, but yours is better than most. Good job.
