Who has time to ride?????

Travel has become a mainstay of my new gig. So...that means cycling has suffered. I went out last Monday and felt pretty good but did a group ride Tuesday and felt terrible. I've opted to skip the Baldwin City RR in favor of spending time with my wife and kids. I'll be on the road a lot in the coming weeks so it doesn't look good for now.

Three days in a row?

The misses and I rode Sunday morning, Monday night and tomorrow I will ride to work! Three days in one week? I thought it might be pushing it to race tomorrow night also but I'll be traveling for a couple of days and I don't recover well in an airport.

Rain anyone?

I've been getting in some rides in between thunderstorms and feel really strong. I don't know what it is (nor do I care) but my strength and endurance have increased dramatically in the last couple of weeks. With Baldwin City coming up in a few weeks, I'll take every advantage I can get!
Today is the first day of commuting to work. I was able to get here in 1:04, just under 17.5 mph average. I'll have a tailwind on the way back (looking forward to it) and maybe even get in the Tuesday night race?

Great weather, finally!

Have had some great weather for the last week or so. Did the Joel's charity ride yesterday plus some extra miles so I got in almost 50. Taking the day off and will hit the Tuesday nighter assuming I feel better...woke up with a sore throat and congestion.
