Surgical Purge of the Aliens

Here I sit in a vicoden haze having just come off a round at the hospital to have 3 tumors removed. The time was right, just off a race and in full recovery mode so it was off to a visit with the surgeon-

to remove the suckers before I have an episode like this occur -

Well all was a success, I shed a few additional grams and should be back on the bike in a couple of days no worse for the wear. One of the great things about ultra endurance racing is that recovering from surgery is a piece of cake compared to the races! For now the good news is that none appeared to be malignant - time to celebrate!!!!!
