Waylon’s List
Waylon looks back.
[Originally posted at Waylon's blog Rhyme & Reason]
You could say this is a mid-season reflection of sorts. I could not be happier with the team and all the support we have received this year between the management and sponsors.
This is my first year as a cat 2 and it was a big jump, although fairly smooth. I do have a lot to work on still but with all the experienced people that have surrounded me this season it has helped so much.
Ten things I have learned so far this season…
1.Putting your shoes in the washer is ok, just add some other clothes or towels and they come out super clean.
2. Take the extra pedal stroke or two to hold your position or move up, it saves a lot in the long run.
3. Tegaderm is expensive.
4. Tubasti glue is messy.
5. Regular brake pads blow in the rain on carbon rims.
6. Be thankful to host housing and you will be invited back.
7. Hydrate…it actually does help.
8. Great teammates are awesome and make racing so much more enjoyable.
9. Be selfless.
10. Be grateful, your racing a freaking bike.
