Wow!  It is snowing like crazy outside!  I'm really glad I went riding a few times before the dirt got buried underneath a foot of snow!  I hope that it doesn't last for too long and some warm weather melts it down for some prime dirt conditions =)  Maybe for Christmas?

Hope everyone has happy holidays!

P.S. But the best part is watching my dogs play in the snow....sooooo funny!

....Sneaky orthopaedic doctors....they always know how to lead you on!  I just went riding last weekend for the first time since May!  Dang that took forever!  Fortunately, my ankle didn't bother me too much; well, until I accidentally put my foot down in a corner.  It was so much fun to ride again!  I was tired way too soon...a good sign that I need to hit the gym and ride a lot more!

I'm going to ride as much as I can this winter, snow levels permitting.  I don't think I'm going to do any races until the Spring because I'd really like to get back to the level I was riding at before I got hurt.  I'm totally planning on racing Hangtown and Mammoth, my two most favorite races of the year!  I can't wait and it is so great to finally be back!

I hope everyone has a great holiday season and keeps it on two wheels!
