Escaping Reality

It’s November 11, 2009, and I’m trying to dodge reality.

Up at 5 am in a freezing Missoula, stressing over bills. The IRS says I owe $700 for underpaid taxes in 2007. That’s on top of a $500 bill from Cellular One and a $2000 car repair. Looks like no mountain bike races in 2010 for me.

Despite being robbed blind, had a blast last night. Rode up Sentinel Mountain with Ed, calling it the Treasure Ride. Felt strong, reaching the top without a hitch. The city looked amazing at night.

Ed suggested extending the ride to Deer Creek, then the Kim Williams Trail. Couldn’t resist.

Hoping to find a buddy for tonight’s ride – US West Trail, Marshall Canyon, then down the Sidewinder Family. Any takers?
