fine?

The stimulis, tricks, seasoning.   I was hiding out a bit on the back of  the grip truck.  I took a phone photo looking out of the back of the truck, up the street, towards our rain protected carts/equipment.  I noticed the reflection on the right in the hard gel. (plexi sheet of color corection, or light reduction like a Neutral Density). 

Normal.

I'm thinking of going to WVA to race

its a bit of a drive, but looks like a nice, tough race.

I wanna try to beat Gunnar Shogren,...

or maybe get away in a break with him, and chat it up some with the legend.

but most likely if I go, I'll get some much needed early season suffering and some uphill legs out of it.

 I'm looking forward to my time in a cheap hotel room.

and then heading up north to spend more time with my mom and stepfather in Beaver, PA.

toasting ya all, cheers.. clink.. glug glug. dlowe.
