So much, so much...
Ok, the Ocho has been totally delinquent in her blogging duties, especially since she's had so much to blog about in the last couple of weeks!
First, though HP04 and HP08 didn't do a great job of documenting their experience, they made a trek down to Capitol Hill Bikes a couple of Fridays ago and the Ocho took possession of her new bike (HP04's old bike)! It was all very exciting. After they tried to sell HP08 $250 shoes and a $75 helmet, she chose the $70 shoes, the $40 helmet and some bad-ass biking gloves. Needless to say, she looks Hotttt in all of it. HP04 was nice enough to hang out with HP08 while she got her fitting done and the guy helping them said he "learned a lot" from their conversation. So, after one stem replacement, the Ocho is ready to cruise. After all of that, though, the Ocho has not had the opportunity to hit the road yet and her new bike has been doing a good job of holding down the floor in the laundry room for the last 10 days. Hopefully after this weekend's Tri season kick-off at Smith Mtn., HP08 will be able to dedicate some serious time to learning all she needs to know about biking around Virginia.
It looks like HP03 beat HP08 to the punch in posting their NH photo, but the Ocho will throw these up for good measure:
HP03 at the rally in Portsmouth.
HP08 while the Big Man was speaking in Portsmouth.
The Big Man starting the rally off in Portsmouth
The Ocho had an amazing time in the big NH and it reminded her how much she misses HP03. HP08 has decided that it's time for HP03 to give up her crazy NH lifestyle and come home the DC already!!!
Finally, HP08 has been struggling a bit to get ready for Smith Mtn. this weekend and is a little nervous about her big return to the water. (She would insert a link to her post-Bath County post here if she knew how. It's June 27, 2006 if anyone wants to check it out.) Thanks for HP01 for loaning HP08 her wet suit! The Ocho is going to take it for her first spin in the pool tomorrow night. She's also considering joining the Masters Class at the Y, which is now meeting from 5:30-6:30am Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's supposed to be geared specifically to people training for Tris and other than sleeping, what else am is HP08 doing at 5:30am?
So, that's the update from the Ocho! The HPs will be sure to fully document Smith Mtn. this weekend and we'll miss the absent HPs!!! Here's hoping we'll all be together again soon!
-Ocho out.

Mom to HP11 is sad that she didn't get to see the Ocho while in DC when she happened upon Senor Ocha and Ocha-in-law at Eastern Mkt, just hours before it would burn down...
