Went for a ~80min mtb ride with a coworker at lunch today. It was very nice out: mid 60's, mildy overcast (not sunny), little to no wind; it was very quiet and peaceful.

I felt really strong over the punchy/sprinty hills and sections that every mtb ride has for me. Good signs.

Oh, and I only crashed once!

Tmrrw: Group ride ride, should net 3.5hrs. Will sit in and take it easy for most of it as I plan on racing Sunday, weather permitted.

Sunday: First race of the year! (Ice Breaker Crit, Ontario, Cat3). However it may rain, so I've decided that if the %precip is >or= 40 than I'll stay at home and train instead.
