Pancakes

Just stepped out of the shower, going to pick up some pancake batter mix from the grocery store. Still not feeling too well. I might as well admit it. Overtraining is a bummer, at least I think that's where I am. Oh well. Time to learn about proper recovery. And pancake rides. nice flat pancake rides.

Maybe I Should just Hang it Up.

(just kidding) but after tonight's ride, this season has had more than it's fair share of events which I'll whine about (list them) tomorrow as I cannot find my camera cord to add pictures.

in the mean time, this song makes me feel good, real good about summer time hey

it's dan deacon, took it down because it kept on playing. wait a minute just go find the video on youtube

Juiceboxxx and viral bronchitis

Since I havent been updating regulary, I might as well make this colorful. I just stumbled upon this guy:



Saw him live a few years ago, guess he's getting pretty big.

Last weekend I didn't race at all and monday I stayed home sick with a fever. Doc thinks I've got viral bronchitis and I'm on the tail end of it. It would explain the nagging cough...that and I've probably cooked myself a little too much. Guess it's good to take it easy for a few days, however superweek is only a few weeks away. I should have plenty of time to bring back the fitness I've lost over the past week of intermittent riding and recovery off the bike.

Grad Party

Today's my brother's grad party, he's done with highschool (and from the looks of it, quite relieved). So I'm off to get in a short ride and then continue to help out setting up for it till the whole shebang kicks off at 4. That should mean running errands to the grocery stores, meat market, etc. The only bummer is that today is the state RR which I'm opting out of to be here for my bro. Family is also part of bike racing.

that's all, going to go make some pancakes

Blog Bonk

I'm home I'm settled and finally have a chance to update. briefly, guess I just got to busy and the blog hit a wall. Oh well. WOW went well, QC races not so much, but I got my 2 upgrade. Last weekend did some heavy riding with the Trek 100 and then 55 miles with JV, JW, and Mike Mandli on the TT bikes. Eesh. Tuesday was 85 miles with the Centenniel ride. I was feeling a tad overtrained if one can feel only a tad overtrained and couldnt get my HR up the week prior. Have since focused on recovery. I miss my friends and the hills of and in minnesota but it's good to be back in the groove at home. work, eat, ride, sleep repeat. Emma is hassling me for a shoutout. tough.

more to come,

ciao
