Thanks so much for the great replies. I am almost now 2 weeks post last big event and I am ready to get back to training. I will start this weekend with some short "no computer" rides with the bike club then next week begin my Tues/Thursday indoor computrainer "interval" rides. I am also going to restart my core exercises. Also, doing some weights / lunges (I did these 2 years ago and I don't know why I didn't last year) will be part of the fall winter program. I have also scheduled a lactate thresold test for about 10 days for now. I wish I could cross train but I hate running (and it hurts my knees) and swimming is just not going to happen...no snow here for a bit so skiing is out too.

My biggest fear was to overtrain like last year but I agree now that 2 weeks is probably enough time. The first week after my last event I was a sleeping machine!!

Thanks again.
