Back home well almost!!!!

I have been lacking on the updates so I'll give a quick run down of the last week. Diegem was last saturday and Jpows killed it with a 20th in the Superprestige. Bjorn also had an amazing ride going 11th in the U-23 and summerhill got on the podium with another impressive 3rd. I was riding really well at diegem but didn't have luck on my side flatting off the start and riding up into 32nd with 2 laps to go but then i tossed myself on the ground hard and hit my knee on my stem and called it a day.

Sint-Niklaas ended up being a good day all around for the elites with powers and wicks going top 15 and tonkin ended up 16th and i finished up 21st. I had some minor problems but all around a good day. The same can't be said for Surhuisterveen where just about everyone had a bad day in one way or another. You could tell that everyone was starting to feel the cross stage racing catching up with them. On top of that Surhuisterveen is the longest drive 4 hours there and 4 + hours home. On arriving back at the house, I began another race to pack up for the 7:30 am departed to airport the following morning. Jamie, Morgan, and I comprised team delta as the twin towers where living large on united business class. The flight from brussels to jfk went smooth until we waited 45 minutes for our bags to come out. After the Morgan and I had our bags we said good bye to jamie and his mullet and where off to connect to newark airport. After realizing that we would not make our next flight if we waited for the shuttle we decided to take on the hustlers waiting outside of the baggage claim. It is almost like going to an market on the street and just keep on low balling until you find something reasonable. The negotiations started out at around 200 but me and morgan got it down to 80 bucks which isn't bag considering we where splitting it two ways. I wasn't not expecting much as far as quality of ride went but as it turned out we ended up rolling in a limo over newark. (Big Pimping). Nothing like having a bike box chillin in the back of a limo. We made it to newark in under an hour which amazed me considering you have to go across nyc. We made our flight with plenty of time. Of course the flight out of newark ended up taking off 45 min late so i missed my connection in salt lake and delta put me up at an airport hotel. One cool thing about long domestic flights on delta is that they have satellite tv on the plane and you have over 25 channels to pick from. Once I arrived at the hotel I went to sleep but woke up 20 min later throwing up. I have felt sick to my stomach since Sint-Niklaas and it finally all came up last night at least it didn't happen on the plane that would have sucked. My flight today is at 11:00 so i think i should make it back to d-town around 12 only a 38hr travel day. I also wrote a entrie on cyclingnews for the camp check it out it.
