morning folks!
-18c/-25c windchill today..... finally getting a little colder!!
well, last week i had to stay home with my son on wed and thurs... i made up for my wed bike by going for a ride after supper... thursday i wasn't able to ride...
so, on sunday, yesterday, i competed in our local icebike race..... it was 3 laps of 4.3km/lap = 12.9km total... it was along the riverbanks of 2 of our local rivers...
i did vwery well..... i finished in the top 10 and less than 5 minutes from 1st place..... there was a few times in the race where i was held up by other cyclists.... if i could've got by i could've madeup time and maybe finished top5... it was my first race ever and i did learn a lot!! so, next year i plan on finishing top5!!!

anyways, can i use my 12.9km race yesterday to replace last Thursday's missed day? that way i can be 100%?
is that allowable?

anyways, i also picked up some winter tights (Whirlwind) from MEC and i love them! they are super-comfortable and as 1 layer they are quite warm.... they're the only layer i had this morning... a little chilly..... the wind wasn't as brisk when i left, so the windchill wasn't bad on my ride today.... below -20c or -25cish i may add my other tights underneath for an extra layer....

well, thanks folks!!
