Just over a week ago I finished a dissapointing 73rd at hillsboro. Up until those last two weeks my training was going fine. I was unable to peak/taper properly for those last two weeks and came in feeling a little sluggish. I was dropped from the pack about 15 miles into the race. The wind, flats, and constant accel-decellerations at the back of the pack where i was unstrategically located did me in and I was unable to hang onto the pack.
I rode my second commute of the year this past friday. Due to "long distances" and overall wussin out I did not bike commute this winter as I have for the last 4 years. With a brand new rack and panniers the kaffenbach is fully commutered out. Some very well ridden gatorskins and fenders complete the package.
To supplement the income Im walking dogs now. My parents laughed when I explained to them the concept of a dog walker but the extra money will be really nice.
