Did anyone watch Liege-Bastogne-Liege? What a brutal race with all these “little” climbs.

Today I had to go to LA to get my passports renewed.
Left my house at 5:25 for a 8:30 am appointment. Everything went cool until I hit the “Commerce” section in LA. What a place… always congested, dirty, rude…

Torrance = sketch fest
I went back to basics today. No heart rate monitor, no fufu drinks, warm-up normally, ditched the powertap (another story) and went racing.
