breaking a rule

but all along I've been making my own rules. Fundamental to that philosophy is I don't really have any desire to grow my "audience" it isn't monetized and I rarely look at the stats. I do know there are many more page views during cyclocross season, and this year April is down likely because of the lack of me doing something dramatic as Battenkill. Substituting a couple flat crits and a pair of circuit road races isn't nearly as exciting or search worthy as a big goofy race in NY.

CTodd tweeted a mess of links when i checked into the computer after Lucy decided to wake me up at 5:15 this morning. Of course she's back asleep and I'm not.

Do I write too much I guess is a question. Yes, maybe no. I don't force it by any means. Well not often. Race reports can get boring "i started, stayed safely out of the wind and didn't do much at the end" can be sort of the formula for road races that I've done this season. But with both Blue Hills sold out and Sterling sold out that leaves a break until the Mystic Velo Crit. With the one assumption that I can make it, i have no idea what the schedule looks like on that day. More Mark Nicholson Smack Down rides in the mean time, hopefully.

Oh right. the links that a former NE super star blogger tweeted:
The Five Outdated blog rules

And then I guess it was an internal link in that post that lead me to this one:
How can I push you from Lurker to Participant

Reading that, heck only had to read the title to be reminded of Solo's plea for the lurkers to come out of the closet in his RFC post.

Today is going to be interesting.
