I like this:

This is from the new Iowa women's team. I like numbers 1, 4, and 8. I'm not on this team, but don't worry Billy, I won't fire you.

Would you like to be a Punk Rock Woman? Simple... just follow these steps:
1. Train and race so hard you sweat, vomit, and bleed lactic acid.
2. Stand tall, stand proud, and be a leader in your sport.
3. Fire your coach and do it on your own.
4. Do it harder, better, and faster than the person next to you.
5. Host a race to benefit your cycling community, not its governing bodies.
6. Earn the win, and give your victory to a teammate.
7. Honor the finishers and call out the quitters for what they are.
8. If she defeats you, make sure she went through hell to do it.
9. Demand something better for yourself and all other women.
10. Never settle. Never settle. Never settle.

Number 10 also sums up my life. I've just realized that in my collegiate career, I've started out at a different college three years in a row. And this summer I'm thinking about moving to Seattle. Eh, Kari?

Yep, that's the plan to move you to yet another state. And since when do Iowains get excited about something? We'll just have to show them what their own rules are about. And I noticed they completely forgot to mention fun... I say we sing them to defeat.
