Recent trip to Floyd Bennett field, tres bien! Highlights included a banana costumed guy (jason) chasing a banana costumed guy (daniel) across the runway. there were also some wheelies, and some aimless looping around the field that looked like a blast. i didn't do any of that as i was almost out of gas. Never go on a big group ride without filling up first. Btw riding in a pack is fun as hell, I forget until it rarely happens, it had been a whole year since I'd last done it. Lots more photos can be found here.

Amazing trip, followed up the race day with 4 days in Falmouth. Was amazing, and the biggest news is of course that Rebecca and I got engaged. Snaps of the trip here, and an awesome week. The biggest decisions were how far to ride (bicycle), and where to eat, and what kind of drink to get. Went to an awesome Irish place where the owner sings EVERY night, Liam Maguire. Not sure there's anything I'd want to do every single day, but he obviously digs it as it's up to him - he's the boss.

Back to the track! Yes, went back and raced once more post injury. I was very slow. It mostly felt good to be back out there, though the bike felt very heavy and now when the back end would chirp and come around I tended to hit the brakes big time. So not nearly as aggressive, and I wasn't that aggressive before. It was fun, though less cool was the way they announce each heat. At the end they were REALLY moving through em and I missed my last outing on the track - I rode up to the pit just as they were pulling away from the starting line. Like 3 guys went down, and I would have been in that group, so maybe it's just as well. I think it was better psychologically to have a day crash free. Added a few photos. snap snap. and THEN, went to the Cape. That trip gets its own post.
