Decisions, decisions...

There are a few races left in the season, and I need to decide which ones I'm going to do. After racing at Mt. Snow, I've come to the conclusion that I really enjoy racing on dirt and will likely focus exclusively on mountain biking and cyclocross for the remainder of the year. There's just something special about mountain bike racing. I'm not sure if it's the party like atmosphere, the friendly people, or the thrill of threading single track. I did some road and mountain bike racing back '99 & '00 when I first started racing and gravitated toward mountain. If I do decide to try a road event, it will only be for upgrade purposes. My 2009 season will be pretty much all mountain and cyclocross. ~Yeah dirt!
