So of course I have slipped in to yet another lull of non-posting. I hate when this happens, and I am still not in the mood today. But I thought I should update the site and my recent activities.
Currently I have been mentally occupied with the fact that my boy Steve and I will be riding the Grand Tour this weekend. It is a ride that is put on by the Los Angeles Wheelmen every year. The distances include a 200K Double Metric, Double Century, Triple Century, and a Quad Century. Of course being the idiot that I am, I convinced Steve and myself to enter for the 400 MILE distance.
We have a time cut of 24 hours to complete the distance and qualify as finishers... so the heat is on. We have laid down hour and hour of base miles and mindless hours of cycling at pace. I now sit here a few days before the event resting and trying to clear my mind as much as possible. I am confident that we will complete the distance and achieve the ultimate in bragging rights.
Short and sweet... perhaps a few more update before the event gets off, but definitely a ride report after the event.
We start at 4:30am Saturday June 27th, in Malibu. Below are some links to the routes.
