i'm back. again. i know i've been a lousy blogger, but here i am. 5 months to the "tour divide" great adventure, and i'm no where near the shape i need to be in for this kind of epic racing. OK, so i did some long hours in the saddle, but i could not keep it up for longer than 2 weeks straight, as i was too fatigued to go riding again. you know- life, work, a liitle baby running around, a damn cat who doesn't like sleeping at night. so i took a step back, and told myself to take it easy...
and that's exactly what i've been doing lately. there are two SingleSpeed races coming, and god knows i won't miss those. so i turned it down a notch, hours wise, and put on some short hard workouts. the tour divide training will wait, right? i mean, i have almost 10,000 hours of riding under my belt, so i'll wing it... i'll start riding long hours again in march, with a 5 day simulation in april, with all the gear and the right bike.
which brings me to the next question... since my sponsor is trek, what do you think i should do? go carbon, aluminium, or an older chromoly frame, like the Ferrous? its a big choice, one that has to be made soon. help.
