let's review.... cross season, it's another reason... for eating cookies...

The coolest thing so far is watching Donovan tear around on his new bicycle and step up to race with the juniors... and pick off a few of the older kids ahead of him....

Here's what his old man has done so far this year:

MFG#1 - 6th place;    MFG#2 - 14th place;    MFG#3 - 21st place
MFG#4 - 6th place;    MFG#5 -   6th place

Starcrossed- 10th place

SCX#1 - 8th place;      SCX#2 - 5th  place;     SCX#3 - 5th place

I feel I've been doing good battle, but just haven't been able to quite put a winning race together (yet). I felt like I almost had it the previous weekend, went form 9th to 2nd on lap 2 and then took the lead... only to fall, and fall, and slip again down to 6th. Oh well....

Exhibit A:
 MFG #5 could-have-been winner; instead got kit muddy by falling....

Let's see what happens the remaining Sundays.
