A New Frontier: The Privateer

What's up cycling world. This is your boy Pacer checking back in with ya on the haps.

My first week as a business owner was incredible. If you go to www.dynamictabletennis.com, you can see my website.

I am the FIRST person in the WORLD to offer "Automatic Download" of a full length table tennis training video. I am offering it for download for windows media video, and quicktime for ipod. I am also offering it in the hard copy form.

This week sales came from Southeast Asia, Germany, Hungary, Dubai, Phillippines, and Pakistan. I also had a truck load of sale right here in the Great U, S, of A. I put this company in place so I can get a return off my 20 something year investment, and I have got back the first 8 months of my career so far. The future is bright for Dynamic Table Tennis, and my wife called me the Mailbox Mogul, because my main job now is walked over videos to the post office. All that has done is freed me up to hit the trails and the road.

How so, you may ask. I branded my name in Table Tennis, and I have carved out a unique niche because I own my own product from the ground up. I am selling directly to customers and since I'm not doing any wholesale, I"m making a killing. I'm going to do the same thing in cycling, only for fun.

I created a cycling logo, and this fall I'm going to be doing some races with my helmet cam on, and I'm going to convince some of my race buddies to do the same as well. I'm going to make a show out of it, and have a truck load of fun. I'm going to do interviews, helpful tips, and video articles on health and fitness.

I the mean time I have knocked the cobwebs off the Racer-X, and hit the trails 2 days in a row because we had weather in the 70 in NC finally. I am 5 minutes off my normal time, and after 4 months of not touching a bike, I feel kinda of happy. I was just a tad bit faster the next day. My ass and hands are raw as hell, and that is to be expected.

I'm trying to put myself on track to race Bump & Grind in June. I only did that race once, but I loved it, even though that 2 mile steep climb killed me. I'm a much better climber, I'm faster, and about 15lbs leaner, but the only draw back is I'm an Expert now, so the odds are back to neutral.

My plan is to hit bump and grind, and hopefully get T-Wiz to come up from the Dirty, Dirty, and make it a really great weekend. I am going to hit at least 2 of the SERC's to test myself, and try to make my a real dent in the State Series this fall.

What is my plan
The Bike: The new Carbon-X
The Program: Getting Coaching from Dean Yobbi (I said it first, even he doesn't know he is my coach yet
Fitness Test: Gonna get 2. One in June, and one in Sept.
Sleep High, Live Low, I'm going to start sleeping in my CAT Oxygen Unit in August
The Goal: Top 3 in the Expert Category.

So, that is it people, Pacer back on the block, but call me the "Privateer", because I am going solo from riding for any bike shop, unless someone offers me a "Godfather Deal"

Until then, take a look at me on youtube acking the damn donkey
