Okay, so maybe I'll get back in and post a few things from our Virginia bike camp to this blog...but for now I'm moving forward. Work and general life stuff conspired to keep me off the bike all week. Well, I did get out Tuesday for 90 minutes. So by today I was wanting to ride BAD. My legs had been hurting (I think my muscles were saying good bye). The ribs have been cranky all week. Might was well put it to them today!
Hooked up with some long distance mtn bikers. We spun out 70 miles and the Polar claims over 4000' of climbing. Sure would like to see a power file from today.
Mix of Island Lake, pavement, gravel, random singletrack and the Poto. Return to Island Lake. Just have to say Jim put together a great route. To all the guys I rode with today...you put me in the hurt locker and kept me there a LOT of the ride today. Super great ride. Somehow I think that crit tomorrow is going to take a lot of effort.
Sunny day with a solid east wind. Certainly provided major incentive to NOT loose a wheel when we were on the road. Perfect weather today for riding. Trails were in great shape too.
