Almost my Birfday!
Its almost my birfday, hooray! This is somewhat wierd.."I'm 20"...Am i really?
Well this week has been much different than the past three and half weeks for one simple/big reason...I'm riding my bike again. After taking three weeks off the bike i was becoming so lathargic i just coulnd't wait to get back on the bike. This years training plan will be under the comand of Chann and J. I've already started training for next year and im really excited. Boulder will for sure bring a different training experience than Texas as I have already rode in colder temps than i ever did in TX. I'm already not too fond of the snow, especially when it melts and turns to slush. Since the snow came i can't take the normal roads i took when it was warm out because those roads were remote, and traffic free for the most part;
now i have to rely on the 4 wheel coffins to break up the snow and ice that will for sure take me down faster than a car will.
Yesterday i went and did some climbing. It was deffinately colder up there but the views were prtty cool with the snow.
However, going down was the worst. I was sweaty, and going downhill made it frigedly cold, not to mention the sand they put on the road was like a death trap.
Tonight is going to be a lot of fun! I pick up Ben and Tala who decided to come visit me for my b-day and to come see boulder since Ben is going to be living here sometime late next year. In other news, Bryan is going to sandbag his way to the Cat3 Colorado State Cyclecross Championships. Bryan, upgrade!!!!!!
