Rise and Shine

"Sticks and stones have broken my bones
but words hurt even more
and I wonder why
when all I feel is love inside.

So I'll rise,
rise and shine for me." - Poe

It's been a hectic weekend in Mandy-land - lots of fun with new friends. Team Teany is officially united - we have a squad of 10 girls that are going to rock the house this year. We are a CRCA team and so much more. It is a team with a purpose - a team with not just an awesome roster, but an awesome vibe. Supportive spouses and significant others make social visits a blast and it is truly inspiring to be around these strong chicks. Strong in life and strong on a bike.

We have many things in the works - yes, we'll do more than just race - like give back to our sponsors that give to us. Give back to the community in which we live. Give back to one another.

All I can say is I am psyched and for the first time, I can't wait for my off season to be over so I can go train with the team.

On another front - tomorrow is a big step in a new direction - and it feels really good.
