Wednesday 'Night' Race
Strange dancing lights in the night forest may lead some to create ghost stories but mountain bikers know better the things that go bump in the night.
Went to the gym today before the race working the chest and back (bis, tris and shoulders on Monday). No energy bars or the like and the heat was a bit more than I like but just missed breaking the 30 minute mark on my laps. Fatiguing the upper body makes the ride more tricky and I've been riding some every day since the last race. Now it's time to rest a couple days and concentrate on some real work. Need some good sleep with this break for my body to recuperate since I wont get much sleep the night before the next race.
Did you see that Polaris commercial where the guy sits all big and proud about riding his ATV up hills others wont? Does the same word come to mind? For me its 'pansy'.
It took me half the night to get this video upload to work not to mention I got stung by a bee during the race on top of that. Oh yeah, I won another tube and chamois butt'r at door prize time.
