At one point, i thought i got it! But at the end, i actually only remembered some old code that, of course, wasn't right one. As this blog was my first chance in life to make something bigger, something that people will recognize me for, i didn't stop. I tried it every day, every week. Billion tries, but still NOTHING.
As the time was passing, i was giving up slowly. After few months, i even stopped trying and realized that i probably won't be able to access that blog anymore. Of course i continued my career, all that time. I kept writing all of race reports, life events and some interesting stuff in Notepad, just to, if i ever retrieve my account back, write all of that on my blog.
But, one day...
....................................TO BE CONTINUED....................................
How old is Marko now, like in the present? (obviously written in past tense)...if so why would he bother to include a computer crash while reflecting on his life?

Big thanks to jdog for making this AMAZING userbar!
Shonak - Well, he didn't want to lose all of these presentations, race reports etc. It was worth waiting, but again, he lost more than 1 year of freaki' password. Check out what happens in next few episodes, it's going to be pretty interesting!
547984 - Marko's born in February, and he was 14 when he started blog (January 2009). As it's now September 2010, he's 16 right now. Because, as i said, that blog and cycling is his only chance to make "something" in his life. So, it's very important.
But one day, while i was sitting with my friends in some nearby caffe, resting from though day in school, i noticed something pretty interesting.
That was strange text on the wall of that caffe, that reminded me of something - but i just couldn't remember what it was. As i am jack of all trades and want to know everything, i started thinking about it. After few minutes , that strange "Mt.Everest" with actual Everest in background, changed my day totally. I just remembered what my password was!
Tried it on my smartphone quickly and it worked. Oh my God!
Yes , yes ,yes! It was "Mt.EverestCyclingBlog". I know, it's weird one, but well... It was really strange feeling to enter this blog once again.
Be sure to check this blog more often from this point, since it's going to bring you some really nice races from May 22nd, 2009 to September 10th, 2010 period!
sutty68 and Shonak - It was nice "Computer Series" i guess. Hope you enjoyed it, but now, Marko has to report everything that happened in that more than a year period. Of course, he'll try to say only some basic infos and not to go in-details, since it would be just too much. Stay tuned!
Well my point is, Marko is obviously writing the blog from the future, because how would he write it without a computer. So, how old is he at the time of writing?

547984 - Well, he was 16 all this time (in Computer Crash series) since he was writing this from September 10th, 2009. We're now back in future.
Faillu - It's going to be way more interesting now.
All - Lost all jerseys in System Repair, but luckily saved database and all these stuff. Will try to do these jerseys (who are not that complicated, to be honest) today.
Since i was not able to enter this account for more than a year, it would be fair to at least write some retrospective of events that happened in that time. Well, here it is, retrospective - first part. It's Road Race edition, this time. As i only made reports of 2 RR events in 2009, this is going to be quite long post. But , let's start.
Tour de Serbie U17 was my next race in RR schedule and it actually was first hilly race and first and only stage race in U17 Leagues schedule. It was one of my main season goals, and it was quite normal that i peaked my form for it. 3 days of good fight with Hodzic brothers from Redstar and Jovanovic from Partizan were best cycling experience in my life.
At the end of it, after tight fight with Jovanovic , i somehow managed to get win on last stage and actually win GC. My dream slightly became a reality.
City race in Novi Sad was next one and it was flat one. Cupic recovered well for it and i was his leadout, as expected. However, he missed the win by only half of meter there. Shame.
Still, 3 more races in 2009 season for me. All of them on hilly/mountainous terrain. I totally enjoyed first and only mountainous race this season Krusevac - Sjenica, since finish was in my hometown. Sadly, i couldn't get the win since O. Hodzic was just unbeatable. I finished as 2nd there.
2 last races of the season were hilly ones and i easily got wins on them. I improved alot and i knew i would be somewhere on top of the rankings at the end of the season. Well, this is how it turned out to be:
1
Marko Šantić
Borac Cycling Team
90 points
2
Omer Hodžić
Red Star Cycling Team
78 points
3
Luka Kotur
Partizan Cycling Team
74 points
4
Nikola Jovanović
Partizan Cycling Team
69 points
5
Kadir Hodžić
Red Star Cycling Team
63 points
As a price for it, i got chance to sign a contract with some Continental team for next year. Adria, Radenska, Sava and Meridiana Kamen had some nice offers but of course i rejected them. I was only 15.
At the end, that was one really nice season. That was clearly best 1st September of my life. I never expected win in Total Classifications at the end, but special thanks to my team for them. I really would not be able to make that without them.
Damn, it would've been nice to see him go to Adria

sutty68 - Well, as probably best all-arounder in this league, with all of these different kind of terrains in schedule, he expected it somehow, but it's still big surprise!
547984 - He's way too young for something like that. You probably never saw 15 years old (he was at the end of 2009) pro. So, who knows, he maybe even try something like that at the end of 2010.
Shonak - Indeed. Well, these teams that were interested are all from Balkan. If Marko get a good 2010 season, maybe even some bigger international CT and maybe even PCT teams gets interested, who knows. Don't forget, his contract expires at the end of 2010. He might even sign a new one. Stay tuned to see what's going to happen', it's not far from this point.
All - After i finally got what i needed for this story, i can finally say that i am going to continue. One Big thanks to Jakstar22 for helping me. I still don't know when i am going to post 2nd part of 2009 - CycloCross version, but it's going to be soon.
Also, this and Radenska will run at same time, with Radenska having a bit slower pace. I hope that's okay, see ya soon.
