Back in the Saddle

After a couple of weeks off the bike I decided today was the day to start thinking about next year. Yea it’s early, but I’ve decided it’s easier to maintain then to try and start over in the spring each year. I’m not sure how it will turn out, but my thinking is that if you look at the athletes that always seemed to be consistently at the top of their game like Jerry Rice, John Stockton, and Lance Armstrong, you will find people that maintain a strict fitness schedule year round. On a smaller scale if you look a Bartman, he seems to follow the same philosophy. To keep me motivated to train I’ve decided to find a couple of races to work toward. The first up is the Allen Butler crit over Thanksgiving.

Today I did a quick 1 hour spin and as I was riding back into town on of these went running across the road.
