Fun With Numbers 2010/105/220

I admit I've been sort of lost these past months without any particular plan to follow or event to prepare for. But some invaluable lessons have been learned along the way, namely; never give up what you love and certainly never agree to sell a bike for appliances! In any case, I am definitely looking forward to putting that all behind me and getting back on track and in MY groove again.

The Last Day of Base

Thanks to the help of Michele and Clara I managed to complete my last base ride today - four and a half hours in the wind. Although I have been disciplined about riding the trainer this winter and hoped it would eventually pay off, this weekend makes me wonder just where my fitness is. The problem is there's no headwind in my livingroom when I am on the trainer, so I suppose I shouldn't be all that surprised at how much harder it feels when you're riding in the elements. In any case, I am looking forward to watching the Tour of California and enjoying a rest week.
