7 days to go until the first major ride of the year, a 200K KY Brevet organized by Steve Rice, Louisville Bicycle Club. I am so ready for it, NOT! I haven’t even sit on a bike in nearly two weeks! Not that I haven’t wanted to mind you, just it has been kind of hard to in Central OH because of this:
So much for hoping for a mild February to get in some good outdoor training miles. Regardless, I still plan be in KY early March 1st ready to go! Hopefully I will not be found along side of the rode in the fetal position wondering what the hell I was thinking later on that day. Worse case, I figure I could become a candidate for some type of Darwin award. See, there is good in everything!
These start of the year rides are the ones I guess we all tend to guage ourselves by, the ones we look at the end of year and marvel at how well we have improved, or how bad we lost site of our goals. Even though they are usually not the highlight of one’s season, they are usually always remembered.
