Does She Look Smarter???
To our surprise, Madison failed her school eye exam.  Apparently, she's farsighted and her right eye is in pretty bad shape (kind of scary when I think about the trails she has been riding).  Anyway, she's really happy with her new glasses.  And now it's time to find some cool prescription cycling glasses (that don't cost a fortune).


Science Project
It's that time again.  Madison has decided to do her project on bike gears. So for the next several weekends, she will be tied up working on her project.  As stated in her research plan, she wants to determine which similar gear ratios will result in the highest speed.  Now that she's racing with the women, (that are at least twice her age and 3x stronger) she's hoping to eliminate un- necessary gear changes while at the same time maximizing her strengths .   Here she is at Morris Bridge working on a couple trials. 




Luna Rocks
A special "Thank You" to Luna for the little Christmas package.  Madison said the bar was awesome and tasted like candy.
