Heartbreak

The Garmin-Slipstream Pro Cycling Team announced their 2009 roster today. This may come as a bit of a shock to everyone, but I didn't make it onto the roster this time around. I know I know. You are all probably thinking "What happened?" Well I had a chat with CEO Jonathan Vaughters (in my head), and he said I should focus on entering my first race, getting a racing license, and logging some individual miles to beef up my legs.

All things considered, they are certainly better off without me. I was glad to see that my two favorite riders, Will Frischkorn and Christian Vande Velde, are returning for another season. I hope they have a great season, and that Will continues to blog about his experiences as a fairly new rider on the tour. I am willing to bet that they are by far the most fashionable pro team around right now. After all, argyle is the new vintage (not sure what that means, but just go with it).
