ziplocs

have got to be one of the coolest, handiest inventions. i am sitting here trying to pack for this weekend's race and would be lost without my quart size plastic bags. normally i prefer the freezer kind - added durability for all the rummaging and such - but i settled for the regular kind (generic brand) due to lack of $ this month... those slider tops are pretty cool too, quicker than the yellow+blue=green kind (of course that's a name brand type amenity).

so the race: 12 Hrs of Razorback, down in reddick, fl. i'll be going down there to support friends of team ride eat sleep repeat (josh, clifford, john, charles, lisa, justine, ashlie) and see some other friends race too (adv racers kevin & shelley, and the BOD/Slowspokes team of jay, patrick, brandon, mark). part of me gets jealous not to race, but i'm not sure how primed i am for some tough, unfamiliar singletrack. ("next time!") besides, i do have an adv race next weekend that should sate my desire!
