I should be in Bend, OR right now, but I'm back in Portland. I was forced to abandon the Cascade Classic at about 10 km from the finish of Friday's stage. I crashed at around 35 mph and landed on a fery unforgiving road surface that took some large core samples out of my knee and elbow. I had to get my knee stitched up, and now I'm not able to bend my knee much or ride for about a week. The timing is pretty bad since the Tour de Toona starts in about a week. I probably won't be able to ride in this race now, so I think I'll end up just heading back to Boulder.
I'm already feeling really antsy from being inactive for a couple days... injury sucks. The weather in Portand is beautiful right now, so I've been trying to spend as much time outside side as possible. Yesterday, My girlfriend Alex and I spent the entire day at the park. She studied for the MCAT and I finished reading Miracle in the Andes, which was really good.
