The year continues to fly by as we prepare for the best of the 2010 track and cycling season.
It's also time to catch up since last year when I abandoned this blog.
I don't really remember much about the early part of the year other than lots of weight room work and roller work based on what coach Chris suggested. The idea was to build on last years successes and get stronger for the 2010 season.
Chris was also instrumental in getting me to look at my team affliliation and decide if I wanted to form my own team. It sounded a bit of a strectch but I thought, why not. I already advertise at the track so a PJW Automotive team was not out of the question. Next step was to formalize the teams goals and qualifications and then think about team kits and other possible team members.
Relying on the local MCF bulletin board, I found a local graphic artist, Peter Anderson, who was familiar with designing cycling kits and the creative process began. New to this process, I didn't realize how long it would take to work through all the attempts. We picked Champ Systems for our clothing supplier and by the time I ok'd the final design spring time was close at hand.
As an aid to getting a very small team started, I decided to sell Team wear to any interested cyclist so that I could meet the minimum order levels.
The team was coming together, just me on it but the beginning of a new adventure.
As I formalized the Team support options, coach Chris decided to become team member #2.
I was happy and excited to have him on board.
