We have a 50 mile club ride tomorrow and 72 hours recovery isn’t in the stars. How the heck do they realistically figure these things anyway?!? |

Either way, I threw caution to the wind and barged my way towards the front on the last lap. After attacking and going with attacks quite often, I rested the next to last lap, thank heavens. The last lap I was in decent shape, then then as usual, I started to get swarmed... No more of those shenanigans, and stepped on the gas and got top ten or so in the pack at the last corner. Like I say, it's hard to read numbers when you're on the limit, but I figured I did sort of well. Come to find out I took third, and it felt good to stand on one of the podium steps after a bit of a drought.

Rode with the Northville crew today, 41 miles, 4 sprints. Good times. I hit 37 mph on an up hill from 30ish, and I broke 35 2 other occasions. I got some work to do though. My stamina isn't good especially climbing. I just blow up.
Tomorrow's plan is 45 or 50 miles with the club for lunch. And I will be riding to and from, total should be around 85. |

I figured out the route we used to take when I was riding with PenVelo, 20 years ago. No Garmin, no Strava, just memory - though to be fair, I did map out the route on Strava yesterday. |

Huh. I just did 65 miles and my Garmin gave me a recovery time of 19 hours.

My 1030 got replaced under warranty and this was just the third or fourth ride since setting it up. I surmise that it doesn’t have enough data yet to make an educated guess. |

My wife’s Garmin stopped right on 17.76 miles but evidently I was slow on the button.

Yah, went to get a battery at Autozone and they said “you know the dealer has to do that right?” Makes sense, after the jump start every warning light in the car stayed on. Cruise couldn’t set, traction control error etc. So I didn’t get the battery there and got bent over to the tube of $300 for a battery and install at my dealer on 16 Passat.
What I do know is that if you run a jumper to another car while you change the battery you don't lose anyone your settings. Did that on my Cayman. |

Step away for a few minutes and a new thread starts up. And Velo Vol returns. I replaced the brake levers on the travel bike, awhile back, because the gum hoods were done. The most comfortable hoods ever. I put Dia Compe aero levers on it and never bothered to change out the centerpull calipers. Riding it around loaded for touring made it clear that the levers and calipers don't speak the same language. I found a pair of Tektro long reach calipers in the box, but they are of the non-nutted variety. So rather than drill the frame, I put the front on the rear and searched for a diy drop bolt. Finding one I like, I went back to the calipers box and found a single long reach Shimano 600. Both these calipers barely reach and will likely have to be filed. The Alex Ace 19 rims are quite small in diameter. I can take the tires off without levers. But they will be good brakes when finished. KoolStop salmon pads all around. T minus 16 days.
I had to unwind two thirds of the bar tape to replace the front cable, which was too short. I did not do the figure of eight on the re-wrap and had tape left over at the end. |

Thanks All! It was fun. No rest for the wicked though. 100 miles and 8600 feet gained today and it says 28 hours of rest needed. Weird.
