02.27.05 - 3 days o' ridin

just short of 14 hours for 3 days - not too shabby, eh?

two back to back 5 hour plus epics and a short friday night ride for fun. not too much in the means of excitment, just good miles for this time of year.

saw granny gear finally has their on-line registration up for their events. i am somewhat bummed out by these guys as they still don't have things in line for the ozarks race yet - i hope it doesn't turn out like the north cali race last year and they ended up cancelling it.

i have been screwed over in the past with cancelled races, so i am planning on having some backup races should the ozarks does NOT happen. looks like the texas 12 hour as a possible backup.

big thing to take into consideration - my mechanic. i have to not only plan my schedule, but also take my support crew's lives into consideration. because of that, i am trying to stay as east coast as possible, and when i start venturing west, i try to stay with the shorter races where possibly a mehanic is not so critical.

but - good news is my form is super duper. i am about a month ahead of last year, at least, in terms of training. last year, double workouts were not started until april, and my big rides didn't start until almost the same time.

should make the early season fun....

gotta run!

sologoat out.
