Oregon State Time Trial Championships

My bronze medal

Isa on the left, me on the right
Today was the Oregon state cycling time trial championships. For me, it was 10k. My time was 17:51, which is a 1:07 improvement from my time last year. I got 3rd out of six people; the guy who got 1st won his age class at Nationals, and he got 15 minutes and something today, breaking the course record by over a minute.
I think I averaged about 22mph — it was something around 25 on the way down and 20 on the way back, because of the wind.
I tried to get off my bike after I finshed, and my legs collapsed. I guess that means I went hard enough.
Mighty Mouse: Arrived
Friday, August 5th, 2005

My Mighty Mouse arrived today! I was waiting for FedEx to come, so I checked my Package Tracker widget, and it said it had been delivered, so I went to check, and there it was.
It has only one button, but it senses where your fingers are so it works as a two-button mouse. And the scrolling ball is really convenient, as well as the squeezy things on the sides. Well worth the price.
