actually, the past week life felt more like being caught in the high-speed spin cycle of our trusted washer. First, my plan to take off an unspecified amount of time from hp to pursue my master's thesis in Tanzania didn't quite pan out. But a friend of mine works for a cycling news organization and they were looking for a person in Europe. I still want to do go to Africa, but they needed someone right away. We ended up with the compromise that I'll go in the off-season, starting in October, right after the Cycling World Championships. Which will be held in Stuttgart, the town I was born in. Talking about coming full circle...
The job will be mostly a computer job, uploading results, editing the news from the various contributors and keeping the web site accurate. Eventually there will be some opportunity to write some articles and do interviews.
The cool part is that an apartment in Gent is provided, Belgium. The even better part is that the 2nd stage of the Tour de France will end virtually right outside the door.
Anyway, big change of plans and I'll keep you posted on what is happening next. I certainly have plenty of things to do right now with finishing up my job, getting rid of all my stuff, and preparing for the big move across the pond.
