Yup, Worlds here I come.

A story. Went to California two weeks ago to try out for Team USA at the USA national championships. It went well. Here are some pictures.

This was our rig, full of bikes. thanks to Wheelzrack for hooking us up with the van to drive. It was great, even with the $500+ gas bill.

I traveled with these two yahoos. This was at the beach where we had a terrorist sighting.

We raced at the Olympic training facility in Chula Vista California. We were able to tour the facility with Arielle Martin, she's kind of a big deal.

This was our team set up, thank the maker because it was baking ass hot!

I look so serious. I guess thats what happens when you train for months for one very important event.

Trying to find my fast.......

Finding fast, in qualifying.

best freakin tacos ever, Ocean beach. This place was so rad.

Shannon Troglia with Vans shoes gave me some new race shoes. yusss!!!!!!!

Ended up third in the main event on my little bike,got a pretty sweet metal, broken back wheel on my big bike but still finished strong with a 6th. This qualified me for team USA, so I guess that means I will be going to Denmark in July for the World Championship, all while representing the U. S. A. Stoked!And a picture of my little gromlin with her custom hat. Love this little one so damn much!

a song that I can dance to

I am taking a note out of wifesters book and skipping blogs, because I can too.  Todays song I give you a song that I can dance to.  I can dance to this song because Christopher Walken does, and he is awesome.

boredom

Well I look at blogs everyday, but really lack a shit storm of motivation for writing down things that I think people would like to read. Eh, people dont really care, but I like to think they do, so here is an update.

The indoor season has come and gone, the last weekend of racing in the city of Salt was a painful

one, ended up crashing really hard and getting a slight concussion, it sucked. Happened on Saturday night, broke my helmet, and had to race on Sunday. Sunday came, I borrowed a helmet from my boy, and won. I don't really remember how, but I guess I pedaled more than the other guys. Here is a picture of my concussed-ness-ess.

(yup, Im concussed)

Went to Rock Springs a few weeks later for races. Won my class, took third in the Pro Am, made a couple hundred bucks. spent the couple hundred bucks on gas coming home, not really, but damn gas is effing expensive.

Work. Well, work is work and that's it really. Last week I drove to Winnemucca, Nevada to pick up a new rig. Then drove to SLC, then to Logan in one day. Took me 17 hours, it was a long day. But thankfully I had XM radio to keep me company, especially my new favorite radio show, the Jason Ellis show, amazingly hilarious.

Training, training, training, and more training. I have some stuff coming up soon, dont want to get into it, but I just hope it all pays off.

The grommet is doing amazing as well. She is a little chubbers, and I just love her. We have long conversations about nothing of importance, she always smiles when she sees me, we read some books, just love her to death.

(me and and gromlin)

Speaking of reading, I am reading the second round of Tucker Max. I dont recommend it to anyone. The guys is the biggest asshole in the world, but his stories are funny. If I saw him in person, I would probably throat punch him.

(funny, but inappropriate as all hell)

The wifester threw me a kickass birthday bash for my dirty thirty. we raced go karts, ate some good grub, and had a great time. My wifester is pretty much awesome. She also makes me sammies everyday, so I dont go without food.

Training, did I mention training? effing training.....................

If you care, you can always check out my website, www.jonasharmon.com, I do race reports there, and have some new photos up.

Til next time

ugh

Way to go Big Ben, I hate you. You ruined the superbowl for your team, and I hate you. I have been a Steelers fan since I was a lil grom with a mullet, and now that Big Ben is still quarterback, I give up til he is gone. He is a low life, a bum, and would fit better on the Raiders. Green Bay can still suck it. Why? Because Wisconsin pretty much sucks, thats why.

Another race weekend came and went. We got our new uniforms, have both new bikes built up. T-minus two months til Chula Vista. Oh boy, take to the next level. Here is a photo from the weekend., cant tell if Im riding the wall or not.

On to better news. My grommet is three months old today. Where is the time going? Love this little grommet. If I had a heart, it would be full.

yussss!

this and that and this and that

Life. It happens so fast. It seems like just yesterday that I was sitting on the mantle of my fireplace in my bedroom kind of freaking out as we were about to walk out the door to bring the grommet into the world. Here we are almost two and a half months later, my chunky monkey is plumping right up, and has eye lashes for days.

(the grommet)

People would always say, "oh man, your life is about to change. Hope you did everything you wanted to do cause you wont have the chance to now."
To them I say this: SUCK IT!

Yes my life has changed. For the better. I have a special lil grommet in my life that makes me feel super human. She is my absolute world, there is nothing that I wont do for her, and nothing that could stand in the way of me doing those things for her. love love love my little grommet.

Last weekend I went to Reno for racing, it was pretty hard to be that far away, but I kept in good contact with the wifester, but not too much), so I felt ok. Races went pretty well over all. had some bad luck on saturday, and walked away from the weekend with a pair of 3rds, and a bruised kidney. The damn thing is pretty swollen and I have given it its very own zip code.

(This is me winning my qualifier on Sunday, kid in second is way fast)

We head to the City of Salt for more races this weekend. Should be pretty good, we will see. For more updates on races check out my website under the blog tab. peace and bicycle grease!
