So I have been riding for 2 days straight now. Feeling pretty good, not back fully but pretty good considering I have been off my bike for over a month. It's a little weird not riding for so long after riding every day during the season. It's an adjustment that comes with the territory, and so I have been adjusting quite a bit lately.

Then...

I have had a pretty good schedule going at where I work to allow for alot of riding time. So I had yesterday off as usual and got up this am to get ready for my "monday". My boss calls me just as I am making breakfast and says "I got too many guys and I need to cut back, I'm going to have to let you go, but it was really great knowing you and there are plenty of jobs out there. You will be just fine". LOL! What!? Are you kidding me? Ok well I can't do a thing about it so I go to camp and ride. Have a good session with everyone work on some new stuff, pretty good day.

Now that I am home and officially unemployed...

So the whole jist of what I am trying to get at is working sucks!, ok no thats not it. Trying to make it as a true professional in this game they call bmx is difficult...very difficult. You must be willing to pretty much give up everything and then give up some more, and maybe never get a thing in return. So don't expect anything. ride because you truly enjoy it, and don't forget to live a bit in the process.
