Just got back from a decent 4 and a half hour hilly ride with my buddy Grant. I had really wanted to make this a 6 hour day, but due to some technical difficulties, we ran out of daylight by the 4 and a half hour mark. Sometimes there's nothing you can do about it, so it doesn't pay to get pissy about missing and hour and a half. Besides, for the time we missed we made up for it in climbing.
There were some longer sustained climbs, some short steep ones, and some rolling hills. It was a good day to work on climbing strength on the bike, and I think it'll serve both of us well as we head into Spain's training camp.
Tomorrow is 6 hours come hell or high water. I don't care if a freakin' snowstorm, tornado, and hurricane come it, we WILL get six hour in on the bike. 'Nuff said...
This is our new blog detailing our daily adventures, mountain bike racing, endurance sports, and maybe even some cooking (that's Anne's domain!). We will share our experiences with life, training, and most importantly, being a team-both in marriage and in our sport.
