fitting right in.

another nice breakfast shared with my choco rice perls and it was off to speaking class. didnt do to much in there, just talking i guess. ha. then it was the first day of my "witch hunting in the middle ages" class. it was packed full. so full that the prof. created a second class time. i stayed in the one i was in. since it is a proseminar i was unsure if i was going to stay. those are the most work here. but then a girl asked what to do if she just needed the course credit not the proseminar credit and if i heard right we just have to do a protokoll which i think is basically a book report kinda thing, but on only one chapter. sweet. so i think that class should be pretty fun. hopefully get my GE for history out of the way. then i went to the elusive mtn bike class again. and even though the scheduel says it was happening today. nope next week. so i went for a 2 hour bike. the view of the alps was even better today. i saw some mtns i had not seen before.
then at 5:30 was the "team presentation" for the bike club here. it was actually a photo shoot. so i went there just to talk to the people and see when they would be riding and all. after a while the guy who i talked to already came and introduced me. so that was nice. then it was photo time for the club. i was give shorts and a jersey and told to put it on, and come in the photo. so i fit right into the new clothes. and then went and got my picture taken. haha. they even have a team car. pretty cool. im excited. then i was told i need the at least the jersey to race. and i can barrow it if i want, or i could buy it for 42€ or i could get the shorts for 30€ or both for 50€. how that works i have no idea...
so tomorrow i am gonna pay the guy and ill have some new bike clothes. neato. then a guy from the news paper came. took some pictures and all. then i was called over to him and the leader guy of the club and i found out he lived for a bit (newspaper guy) in fairbault. that was interesting. i had just ridden my crappy bike over, so i could not go with most of the others who went to go take "action" shots. but i stayed and talked with the organizers of the team and found out that even though i cant race in germany this weekend because i have no license yet there is a race in switzerland about 40 km away that you dont need a license and it is only 3 € to enter. so if i can get to it ill do that one. someone might be going to it from the club and i can ride with them. if not maybe ill take the train. dunno. and its a training race kinda like the opus crits i think. (its a crit) and an hour long. it would be a good first race. so my late afternoon was quite good. i am thinking the team picture will be available some how eventually to me. so when i get it i will put it up.


i figured id just throw in a picture of one of my hills to show how green it is...
