Recharge the Battery

It feels really good to take a little break from racing and training during the season. With the stress of college finals and all the reports due it was a good call to put aside the bike for two weeks. Riding with Jay at his place was fun and hurt just a bit on the weekends, but gave enough joy to fill in for the week.

This Friday I start training for the Triple Bypass which is coming up really fast. Slated for July 14th in beautiful Colorado with the Roffster, training for long climbs and time in the saddle will be very important in the next two months. Call me up if you want to do a long ride. Also the Deer Valley National in Utah is around the corner on June 15-17 weekend. Getting some altitude riding in will certainly help with that event. Still contemplating if I should race Ellings Park on June 2nd to get my ass in some sort of race shape for Nationals. Like Bert the Hurt says "gotta race to get into race shape".

Cross-training I've heard is really important when doing the same thing over and over again like biking. Our basketball team, Los Guerrilleros, are in first place still undefeated in the league. Averaging 13.7 ppg and 7.6 apg. My frisbee golf score has steadily gotten better. Marco and Gardo still kick my ass on the opening drives tho. These refreshing and using-different-muscles-that-i-didnt-know-i-had are awesome! Especially the next day.

Dance the Good Time dance peoples....
