While I’ll do like the Beastie Boys, today’s post really has nothing to do with them, other than their relation to the title. All of a sudden, I’m sick. And yeah, it feels like my racing adventures have been sabotaged. Well, it’s been coming on for the last few days, but today it hit me like a ton of bricks. Even driving into work today, I was in a haze. It actually felt like I was on autopilot. So, what does that really mean? Well, if I don’t get any better today, I may not be participating in tonight’s Summer Series race at the U.S. National Whitewater Center. Big deal, right?
Well, I guess it’s not such a big deal after all. It’s not like I’m in he running in the points competition or anything. Still, I do enjoy racing, even if I’m getting my ass handed to me every week by most of the people in my class. If I feel a little bit better this afternoon, I’ll still give it a shot. Hell, I can’t come in any worse than last place, can I? Well if there’s a way to finish worse than last, I’m sure I’ll figure it out. Being sick sucks, but not riding my bike sucks even worse. I tend to get a little nutty when I don’t get enough of my two-wheeled happiness, so that alone may give me reason enough to go out there and “race.”
In other news, I have a few things in the works. There are several scheduled deliveries of goods headed to the B-43 Worldwide Headquarters, but I honestly have no idea when the shit will get here. I can’t really let the cat out of the bag, but I can give y’all a few hints. Some of the “items” are upgrades, some are new “fashionable garments”, and some are “gifts from friends.” I can tell you that there are no new business partnerships in the works just yet, but that’s mostly because of how bad I suck this season I guess.
Hopefully if I feel better by this weekend, I can redeem myself with a podium spot in the 2010 Catawba Riverfront Classic. Right now it’s not looking so good, since I fear that the worst is yet to come. Did I mention that I hate being sick? I guess if you’re feeling up to it, you can tune in tomorrow to see if I found a cure for the common cold, and lined up for yet another pathetic attempt at racing in the Summer Series.
Same Bat time, same Bat Channel?

Looks like the weather gods took pity on you for being "sick"
Damn, and I was just starting to feel better too. Oh well, we'll get to do it next week. See you Sunday.
