Me and the month of October have a love hate relationship. Its one of the best times to be in the Carolina mountains with leaf season in full force, a relief from the heat, and the opportunity to eat all that delicious food that has been taunting me for the past 11 months. However for that same reason is also the part I hate about October.
With October almost halfway done, I have enjoyed a couple pizzas, a few beers, and lots of rest. I am currently on fall break and will be watching my team compete in the SECCC Mountain Bike Conference Championships this weekend here at Lees McRae. This month also brings a lot of strategic planning for the upcoming season with personal and team goals along with the racing schedule for the upcoming season. I can say that with everything that is going on with my new team (formerly Industry 9/Highland Brewing Co.) the upcoming season is looking to be the best yet. I am very excited to get to be apart of this new team/family. They have gone above and beyond with bringing me on board and treating me just like everyone else. Couldnt ask for a better group of guys. Look for us to be turning some heads this season on the East Coast.
But for now I am going back to my “vacationing” . Talk to yall come November!!
