Today was hectic. The expo traditionally starts after the athlete parade and that means we have to spend the early part of the day making sure that the booth is all fixed up and ready to go. Setting up the CompuTrainer is the easy part. Making sure the machinery all hooks up with the Computer and the TV takes a little longer.

In fact the main talking point is how many guys can stay ahead of her!
Stay tuned for more installments on Wednesday.
By the way – if you hadn’t realized we are 11 hours behind you!!
