Every Thursday night in Blaine, MN there are bike races at the Velodrome. We went last week and had a nice time sitting outside in the perfect weather. It's an interesting venue, one of only a handfull in the US and only 70 worldwide.
I'm back in town after a weekend of motorcycle races...needless to say, I'm pooped out and have knit only a few stiches. Hopefully I'll get back in the groove by the end of the week so you have something interesting to read.
They built a velodrome here when Atlanta hosted the Olympics. I have no idea if it is still in use or not, but it is in one of the local parks. I'll have to check it out the next time we visit. It would be fun to see bicycle races.
I haven't knitted in the last few days myself. I have been dyeing yarn instead and finished a vest. I think it's that we all get so darn busy in the summer.
I am a 30-something dental hygienist living in MN with my Weimaraner Casey, and missing my Boxer Flea. My husband Kyle is my best friend. I drive a 10 year old truck and a 9 year old motorcycle. My brother is currently serving in the US Air Force stationed in New Mexico. I love Rice Krispie bars, all things Tangerine/Mandarin Orange and Pistachio, Peanut M&M's, caramel, Jelly Bellys, comfortable shoes, cowboy/rodeo fabric, warm blankets, handmade quilts, soft pillows, really good chocolate and lazy days. I dislike litterbugs, dry hands, burned popcorn, slow drivers, below zero days and poor service & dirty silverware at restaurants. I'm currently enjoying my new Android phone, working on my UFO's and reading Recalculating on my nook.
I'm looking forward to Christmas!

I really need to check out the velodrome. I have a few friends who race on it and have never gone to see them.
