Blog Post Numbers Down

Is it just me or has everyone put their blogs up for the winter? I'll agree it's getting tougher to find anything to be "post worthy". I'll give it a go though.

Sponsorship
I've went up and down about staying with Rogues Racing for another year. We had a down year this year with guys getting hurt, not really that many new members, a race that didn't happen (sore topic), and just not feeling very "teamish". All these issues have been addressed in meetings and we're hoping to really give things a change for the 2010 year, so I'm hanging in there.

Since I'm 2 hours away from the main core of the team, there's not really a lot I can do with the exception of a few things. One of those things is sponsorship. I'm going to try to get as many good deals as possible from as many companies as possible. I've already talked to a few, and have several more to go. I hope to finish up the sponsorship campaign by the end of October. I'll just be honest, its looking good right now.

The one sponsor I hope we're able to keep is EastCoasters bike shop. They've been great to work with us since we started the team 3 years ago.

Kit prices are coming down this year too. That was a big upset this past year.

Cyclocross
October 3 will be the first cross race of the season. Its part of the MSG series.

Training is going well. Right now I'm mostly working on Muscular Endurance. After about 4 weeks of that I'll jump back into some VO2 max efforts.

That's it. Maybe I'll have more in the weeks to come.

Take care!!
