So the new year rolls around and I’ve feeling like I want a little change. I’m not one of those who does the new year’s resolutions or the like, though I am trying to get back in the routines that the holidays always tend to disrupt. Regardless, first thing when I work up new year’s day, I got rid of all but a tad bit of facial hair and using the number two guard on the electric razor, buzzed the head.

With the new year comes realization that my second year of crit racing is right around the corner. Schedules aren’t posted, but I’m assuming that first race again this year will be the Downtown Greenville Crit the last weekend of March. Last year, that was my first race, and then I did my team’s sponsored race, the Meadowmont Criterium. This year, I’m shooting for more than two races. My goal is at least 10 races in my second season, maybe more.
