Slicks and Rain AND CHILDREN!

Today we're racing at Whittier Park. Since the forecast was quite dry, I left my knobbies at home and came with my friends Crow and Raven (tubeless semislick tires). Lo and behold, it's raining this morning! The image that comes quickly to mind is racing at Falcon Lake this spring in rain, with my aforementioned slick friends. Particularly, riding down a grassy slope at top speed, but sideways (I recovered).

In other news I'M A DAD! Our two and a half year old adoption has come of age. The Ethiopian courts have ruled that P and M do indeed need a family and that family is us! Hallelujah to God for moving this forward. I hope he surprises us soon with a travel date (we're waiting for immigration and medical documentation).
