There will be consequences

Saturday's race hasn't been sitting well these last few days. I made some BAD tactical decisions early in the race and then had a complete physical melt down. No excuses, it was a bad day.

As I started my ride today I decided to try and get it out of my system...time for a little penance to the bike racing deities, or Italian Tune Up if you prefer. An hour and forty minutes later I'd burned 1600 kcals and set a new personal best 1 hour average power (which included a short 3 minute descent).

I feel cleansed.

  1. I had a race like that earlier in the year. It is hard to forget.

    Good job on the PB.

  2. You guys ride smart this weekend, San Ardo always ends in a field sprint.

    Save a few matches for the end.
