I'm planning on hitting an Airport Ride or two. Was out of town last weekend and next weekend, but hoping to hit it some in late december/january. Didn't want to do it earlier in the month because I'm trying to keep the intensity low, looks like it's pretty aggressive even sitting in for November.
Rode 1.5 hours yesterday. Starting to feel like a cyclist again.

I've been on the rollers all week. I got a new video that plays this during the cool down. Lots of fun.

Monday 5:20 enduro ride, tuesday rest, wed gym (high bar back squat, bench, deadlift, leg press), thurs yoga, friday gym (font squat, pendaly rows - which my form sucks at, romanian dead lift, box jumps).
And I commuted most of the week (only about 8 mi round trip).
I feel lazy, but not bad for the last week of prep...

Still a little head cold. Gonna go out with a teammate in a few minutes for an easy ride of several hours duration unless I start to feel worse on the ride.

is a "century race" an actual race or do you mean a timed ride?
