Happy Labor Day Weekend to me!

Alex from "Pro Cycling" just called. My friggin' bike is in & ready for me to try out!
The only downside is the "speedplay" pedals aren't in yet. He said the supplier/manufacturer hasn't got back with him yet. Plus his shipment of helmets hasn't come in yet. So, I'm waiting till Saturday to even go try it out. (I've been invited to go to the Sommet Center to see Bull Riding Sat night.) So, Saturday will be a day of "firsts" for me. My first REAL bike & my first Bull riding event. Too funny!

I'm officially on the mailing list for the Vancouver Winter Olympics. Tickets go on sale Oct 3rd '08 for Canadian residents only. A lot of the more popular events are by lottery only (figure skating & probably hockey) so I'm going to complete an application for their lottery. (sound familiar, June? ha!) There's some talking amongst friends regarding a trip to London for the 2012 summer Olympics. Hannah's Jeff has some connection to the Olympic construction sites so we're looking into that possibility. Hey, it's not like I'm independently wealthy but I think I can save up for that trip over the next 4 yrs.

Tonight:
Ab work
1 hr of spinning
30 mins aqua jogging (really HARD when you have just trashed your legs spinning an hour!)
