The usual place, but it's going to be very different this week. They don't even know.

Did you attach the carbon mast that fell off to your bicycle? I think that's cheating.

after tomorrow I will be a sailing cyclist... yes, that's what I'll be.

had an evening ride today and for the first time, it didn't suck. It might have something to do with the fact I'm on a diet that doesn't consist of pizza, hot dogs and mcflurries or maybe that my day was frustrating and I took it out on the bike. either way, i needed that ride. Also passed the 4000 mile mark today for 2010.

I like it a lot. It is going to be really useful for next season (racing is almost done for me this season). I need to finish the rest of my tests (15s, 1min, 5min) so I can see where I'm lacking and what I need to work on for next season. I think it is also going to be useful for winter riding so I don't go too easy or too hard.

My seasons pretty much over too. Only three races left, but hopefully I'll get the 8 points I need for my 3 upgrade. As much as I would like to have a PM I'm going to resist getting one as long as I can.

Why resist? They are an incredibly useful training tool. Good luck in the 3s! I've got one more road race left and then I may do some weekly training races, but other than that I'm done. Base training starts in mid november for the collegiate season...fun.

It's my first year racing so I don't think it's really worth it until I stop seeing gains. In fact I just ordered an Edge 500, so at least I can start training with HR :lol:. I also go to school at ISU, so I know someone who is willing to coach me for free which should be a bigger help than just a PM.

Yea I wish I had the $$ for a coach, but I like the challenge of self coaching. Plus I'm going to be doing much of my racing next year in a new city (baltimore for school). So I have no idea what the local coaching scene looks like. What year are you in school? Maybe one day I'll see you at collegiate nats :lol:
