Activity

There were a few riders out on the course tonight. A local came over and asked me what was up. I tired to downplay the severity of the swarm of lycra clad warriors there was going to be in his back yard in 2 days, but he still gave me a bit of stink eye.

I rode the route. It was good. I was born to ride this route.

Numbers: 24:35 Distance 9.25 Avg Spd. = 22.5-ish.

I was holding back as well. Nice. The wind is a huge factor. The course is much more technical that I thought it would be. Lots of black snakes (cracks that they pour crappy sealant over that will grab your wheel). They are really dangerous on a TT setup. Totally nerve racking.

I will have to have everything go right for me, but 23 isn't out of the question.

I am finally getting almost comfortable in a TT position. Almost.
