Definitely coming to this decision is something that made me sad. I知 not sure if I値l try to race but I知 thinking I will just ride with friends for awhile. I致e had a schedule and structured workouts for 5 years now & I have really enjoyed the overall arc of it. I need a break but will probably feel adrift for a while. We値l see, maybe I値l prefer the freedom to just ride however.
