I am an avid recreational with an eye on racing and randoneering. I had been training to qualify for the 2011 PBP but now require Achillies surgery in April so that will have to wait. I am planning on Masters to racing as well having left it 20 years ago when career and family obligations took hold.
I am hoping to get a fun 70 k cross race in in April before the Doc has his way with me. Until then, train, train, train and a lot of fun rides with friends and riding groups.
