Its over, at least for the next 3 weeks

Posted on October 11, 2009

Alright, I am officially done. Finished my TT this AM and the racing part of cycling is over.

I am not sure what happened, but I ended up setting a PR on a somewhat windy day. Its not a good time at all, but it was my fastest and considering that I am already gaining weight and motivation is at high low I left pretty happy.

Now I will use this as a benchmark for next years VOS.

So the goal is to shave 1:00 to 1:30 of my fiesta island TT. I think this will allow me to be competitive at VOS. So, by the numbers: today I rode a 28:06, 26.5mph or something like that.

To ride a 26:30 to 27:00 I will need to ride between 27.6mph and 28.2mph. Fuck, sounds pretty hard now that I did crunch the numbers…. I think it is doable though. Lots of riding planned for the winter and some good ol diet tricks up the sleeve. Maybe add a couple of watts here and there and I should be set.

Alright, time to rest… i mean “reset” and get ready for next year.
