“The” ride
March 21st, 2007 |It was my first ride outside in 4 months. I’ll post route details once I find a high speed connection to the internets but suffice it to say that I rode though all of Masi Guy’s old hang outs.
My impressions after 4 hours on the velo:
- My ass hurts
- My back hurts
- My feets hurts
- My hands hurts
- My neck hurts
I would have thought riding indoors all winter would have set me up better for the season opener. Guess not.
Other comments:
- ISIS drive sucks. I thnk my left side crank arm is about to fall off.
- I feel taller riding outside than I do in the basement.
- My new gloves were very good at keeping my hands from falling asleep. But my hands still gots tired.
- My new shoes were not very good at keeping my feet from falling asleep.
- I went through 5 big bottles of water, 1 Power Bar, 2 goo packs, 1 pack of those little jello-type energy things. Add to that a recovery shake and now I feel like I am going to start hurling again.
- It sure is nice to ride in 80ｰ temps.
I’ll probably ride short tomorrow to recover. Don’t want to over do it! I am lazy after all.
