I'll bet you a beer if you cut your mileage way back, with two complete days off and two very easy recovery rides on the four days before your next hammerfest, you will be as fast or probably faster than ever. Nobody, but nobody is at his peak all the time. You may even need more recovery than that. Sometimes to ride fast you gotta ride slow.
