feeding flies to spiders

was my post dinner entertainment today. its a lot harder than you might think to get them stuck in the web. took me 3 or 4 tries to succeed.

before doing that i had class, i decided it was in my best interest to not go to speaking class. it was just people presenting today, and last time i nearly fell asleep. so i slept instead. then witch hunting the prof went insane cause somebody said a wrong answer to one of his questions. not the best way to promote discussion.
after class the other guys from the bike team and i decided that nearly 3 hours of total driving is to much for a 10 minute race. so i went out in the heat and did 4 sets of 2 min. with 1 min rest, 3 times per set. it was pretty good. i was able to keep it right around 40 for most of the time. and i hit 55 on the very last one. without gravities help. it was quite hot though. my helmet pads only soak up so much sweat, so when i put any pressure on it, sweat just pours out. its a bit entertaining i have to say. feels like biking in the rain! haha.

after biking i found a tv to watch the tour. 7th floor, so ill be spending some time up there.
then tacos, then spiders.

ive decided that if i can find the time and a ticket im gonna try to get to another stage of the tour, hopefully i can do so.
some new info just out on the doping stuff, and if the speculations are correct, it does not look good for basso.

oh and last night the germans lost in the last 2 min. of overtime. i think they just got way to cocky about it and played terrible. so despite a few happy italians last night it was pretty quiet.
