....because I love it....but there's more.
It's been a while since I've posted anything. I must admit I've been
off trails for a while, but putting in hours/days/weeks/months in the
pool and on the road, (road biking and road running).
Racing:
I've had a few races so far this year and my leg strength and
endurance have been exceptional so far....mostly due to single
speeding, IMHO. In years past even with heavy training I haven't been
able to bring my times down as much as I have as when I started SSing.
Preaching:
If you haven't done so yet, get a SS and start enjoying it...that's an
order.
Barneys:
I don't know about other areas, but where I ride here in MD the trails
have been overrun with trail poaching knuckle heads! (and
Cicadas...love it) They usually clear out with the summer whether 95
F and 95% humidity...the trail poaching knuckle heads that is....bring
on the heat!
Workouts:
When it's hot that's the best time to get the SS out. There is not a
better workout on the planet, physically and mentally.
Bike:
I finally had to replace my Avid pads....wow never thought discs would
be so damn good. The D.I.S.S feels like it did when I bought it about
2 years ago. I didn't think it would last this long...something was
bound to give....guess I was wrong again ;-).
Going To California:
I'll be in Beverly Hills late August...I need to work out the details
but I hope there's time to ride or do a trail run out there. Any
local knowledge would be key, TIA.
Peace and thanks for reading my stream of consciousness,
Bill
The mind serves properly as a window glass rather
than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.
