Switching Gears...

Our friend, spouse of my old (and I do mean old) nemesis Todd, and pro racing shiftyklicker  Krista Park has recently earned selection to the USA Team for the World Championship Marathon race in St. Wendal, Germany coming up August 8th. Her hard work and baddassness paid off in securing the selection by kicking butt and nabbing 3rd place at the recent Nationals!

Pretty damn sweet and very impressive. However USA Cycling (the people who annually take our money for race licenses and entry fees) doesn't provide any assistance to the USA team (go figure). Luckily some of her sponsors and friends have put together a great $5 raffle to help with her travel expenses. Please take a moment to help a friend and fellow cyclist achieve a dream. Thanks.
