Berlin

So, I had a random trip to Berlin this past week. Ian and Kit were racing in the Berlin six day in Germany and I have wanted to watch a six day and wanted to see them race so I put together a quick trip to Berlin. I left on Wednesday January 27th after classes and came back Sunday January 31st early in the morning. My dad met me there with 24 hours of notice that I was leaving. I called him and asked if he wanted to go and at first he thought I was joking and after I finally convinced him I was being serious he said, "Sure why the hell not, I've always wanted to go there." Off we were to Germany to watch amazing bike racing and eat schnitzels!

We had a great time, we stayed in a hostel across the way from the track and walking distance to the train and bus stations. We had all different kinds of food, including pepperoni pizza which included cheese and peperchini peppers.. and NO pepperonis. I even learned a few words in German: Druken, auf, Danka, and mit. Meaning: push, open, thanks, and with. LOL! The racing was awesome, I have never seen so many people so enthused to watch bike racing. The boys did a great job and ended up 8th in the Omnium!
