Update
My grandfather passed away this week. He was diagnosed with colon cancer and passed away a few days later. This horrible disease takes another one of my family.
The Six Day is going well. Mark and I are up five laps on the next team. But we are still pushing a head. I am getting fairly tired, but I know that every time I roll out for a race I am getting stronger and it will come back in a few week for AVC and the FSA Grand Prix. My friend Ben from college track and field came out to watch last night. His friend works with Darien at Nike and apparently they found out they all knew me.
The B field at the Six Day has been very fun to watch because it is still a very close race. All the teams but one are all still on even laps. It is a slugfest every race to get those precious points. Andrea and Jeanie have stepped up their game since the first night in the women's field. They are currently in second place overall, 2 laps down to Jenn and Miranda and one lap up on third and fourth place.
Andrea started a summer BioChem class this week at PSU. I looked over her class notes and quickly became happy that I was not taking that class.
Lastly, for those of you that have not heard, Zak Kovalcik broke his collar bone yesterday during a crash. It looks like Bike Central is going to be hosting an extended Friday afternoon/evening race, including Sprints, Keirins, and Points races, next week on the 4th of July. They will be trying to raise some money for Zak as he tried to pay his bills for his injury. There should be more details later, but you should put it on your calendar now.

Steven,
Our condolences for the loss of your Grandfather.
He and your family will be in my thoughts when I ride on Sunday.
