Gosh Darnit...Or Not

ok, i was going to race greenville...but...thanks to the most wonky cracked-out google directions ever (except that one time heidi and i tried to get to the speedway and ended up at a bojangles 20 miles east), i missed it! and never actually managed to find the promised land of the donaldson center. the saint and i did find 3 different white horse roads and approximately a million 25/276 junctions. oh south cackalack, how i love thee!
165 miles later and much wiser about the evils of google maps, we arrived home and the day only got better. first i ate an avocado sandwich. then instead of a RR i got to ride avery+pinnett with the saint and the kop (who are "only into racing"...right...they just patiently waited after every climb and descent for training).
ok. so that's $25 plus gas money just thrown in the hole. but then i realized...while i was at unc i would've paid way more than that to have a couple rides like i did this weekend. oh pisgah, how i love thee! (except now i'm not being facetious.)

ps. i heard the races on saturday were total wreck-fest shitshows, so maybe i wasn't missing that much anyway. although that was my last chance at a uscf race until the french broad...guess i'll be a cat 4 forever. no worries.
