ahh the bühlers

well today was pretty good. and for the morning quite nice outside. so after breakfast and sitting outside for a few hours i went for a bike. to another big hill in the area. just a little further away, and bigger i think. instead of 3 complete switch backs it has 9. much more entertaining to go up. it took 17 minutes. i only had time to do it once though. it was quite nice out. i biked in only shorts and a long sleeve jersey and was dripping sweat on the hill. got back and ate lunch right away, another big meal. oh anne got home too. so it was a family meal and jake.
then at 3 relatives came over to celebrate christophs birthday, so the talked and ate cake (homeade cheese, and that kind with cream and fruit on top)for a few hours. when they are all talking amongst each other i can really hear the swäbisch accent. compared to hoch deutsch it is much harder to understand, but i think learning german with it makes it a bit easier for me to understand. some of the other germans cant understand it...
and now after a few hours of clouds the sun just came back out. how nice.

KSU was great! The B field was ~25 people. peter did well, he was 7th in the road and 8th in the crit. i thought i was going to be fighting for last place due to bronchitis in the road race but i ground out 9th place, brandon took 10th i think that the hills were a little too big for him. although he was 4th in the criterium. i didnt do the crit so i could rest, although i did the afternoon open crit. we're all actually healthy for north dakota next week, it should be fun.
