Triple Ride Sunday

Fun day at Westwood Park in New Castle. Glad I got over there as the trails are starting to get overgrown. 2 hours of fun. I was riding tempo, but PR for the loop. The new Farley worked well. Beautiful day. I raced Zwift TT Club 1.5 mile TT. 2nd place with 357 avg watts. No warm up. haha Ride # 3 on the TT bike testing the adjustments from yesterday. Things feel good, but won't know until a full TT effort. Awesome day of riding!

Venga!

Fri / Sat

Back on the bike Friday after a rest day dialing in the TT bike a bit more. Beautiful night for a ride. Busy day Saturday, but got out on the fatty for 3 Farmersville laps. Love that loop. 1,168 ft of climbing in 22 miles. I hopped on the TT bike for a few miles afterwards. I brought my tt bars out a bit farther. Really close to my old position. The front end feels a bit more comfortable. Fun stuff!

Mad Cow Ramble TT # 4

MCR TT # 4 in the books. I was good but not great. Still mentally & physically meh after Coal Country & last week's rest. To be expected. Good effort at 26.4 avg on a not a fast route per say. TT work is in the future. Bike feels good minus a slight saddle height raise post race. Blue Streak next up.

Fat TT Recon Tuesday

Another day on the fatty. Mapped tomorrow's MCR TT course. Hit some gravel around Miami East baseball fields. Fun KOM.  The fat bike is fun even on pavement. The legs felt pretty good. 5 days in a row. Build up after a rest week is right on. We will see how the new TT position feels. If it's on, I should put in a good time. We shall see.

Fatty Monday

Got out on the fat bike after the rain. It was a wet mucky fun ride. I left from Fundalia heading North via a few Strava segments from the old Fat Bike Wednesday rides including Cassel RR gravel. North almost to Troy on the rec trail & back. Fun stuff!

Double Sunday

 Ride # 1 10.1 mile Zwift TT Bologna with a nasty 1.5 mile climb. 9th Place. Steady watts. Ride # 2 in Cow Country with Josh & Howard. The Cow Hill, 201 Rollers both directions, Jay's Climb, Rudy, & Walnut Grove Hill.  36 miles. Many thoughts in the head on those roads. So many great memories. We're still doing it. Good day in the saddle!

Recovery Week

It's been a rest week recovering mentally & physically from last week's race. Tough week getting over being lost with that DNF. Turned out there were over 25 signs missing when they retrieved them post race. My Garmin messing up was a fluke. I'll have to return next year possibly. Long year to wait for redemption, but been there before. I can say all the Winter training paid off last week. I had great legs on the climbs. That's encouraging. I did a few easy rides this week. Legs weren't bad. Now it's back to work focusing time trialing & singletrack when it stops raining lol. Mad Cow TT next week then Blue Streak followed by a build for Strawberry TT in early June. Memorial Day have a 4 hour MTB race planned weather permitting. Back to work today! Zwift TT & afternoon ride on tap. Mooooo!

Venga!
