1.5 hrs of cross riding in Regan Park. Did 4 X 9 min intervals circling the cross course. Had a flat at the end of one interval and pushed to finish only to dump and loose a bunch of skin on my elbow when the tire rolled on a turn in the parking lot. Sleeping is going to be an adventure tonight.

09/12, 60 miles
Avg for the 1st half was 17mph, watched it slowly slip away
on the 2nd half. The last 15 was brutal. I stopped at one
point to make sure I didn't have a brake dragging, no such
luck, I just suck. Ended up at 16.2 avg, still good for me.
Off to the races now. The Last Stand at the stadium,

70 miles. Very bad ride for me. I all of a sudden got the "I don't want to be on this bike anymore" urge 45 miles from home. I turned around halfway up a hill, and slogged back home.

1+ hr cross racing. In the B Race my front brake would not release forcing me to stop twice to fix it. The organizers allowed me to enter the A Race. Anyone visiting Wendy Park might find pieces of my lungs out on the lawns. It was still fun, even though the "fun" lasted 15 minutes longer than it was supposed to.

I havn't rode yet today but my 4 year old and I are going for a bike ride once the little brother goes for his nap. (He has reminded me every 5 minutes since we have gotten up.
) I'm love that he's into bikes!
