...and then everyone freaked the fuck out.

People are goin' nuts about Southern Cross around Birmingham right now and I think it is awesome.

I cannot think of a race that so many people around town have been so excited about...I'm probably actually wrong about this and someone smarter than me will point out numerous races I forgot. Anyway.

I'm so excited I made a collage on our dining room table out of stuff people take to bike races.

Yes, that is a cookie cake.

I am ready to quit staring at the damn Weather Channel and hightail it to Dahlonega. Ready for some tasty beers and big climbs. See you guys there!
