Won some money, won some respect...

So we had our "Christmas" group ride Saturday, and it went well. I ended up picking up $110.00, along with a little bit of respect from the team as well. I still have a ways to go to be Cat 3 material, but I'll get there. Nathan O'Neil showed up to ride with us for a bit too!
Today I had some family stuff to do, which usually means getting into arguments over my expensive bike, or the fact that my dogs sleep in the bed. It went okay, with a few normal "small" disagreements.
