| Thirty-three miles on the road bike tonight. Headwind galore and still averaged 17+mph. Where the hell was this power and endurance yesterday?! |

In other news, I just put a pair of HED rims on order. Yummy. Now what hubs do I lace them to? 105? Ultegra? Something not Shimano? I kind of want some loud hubs. | |

| Thirty miles last night with headwind again. Averaged 20.2mph up a short, but steep, hill. Legs are shaky today. | |

| Finding a mountain bike race in California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, or Nebraska during the weekend of August 24-26 has been unfruitful. You'd think there would be at least one race in one of those states. However, I will be in Colorado for at least one stage of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge. Here's a video for the first part of my race on June 10th. That long paved stretch to start means I should have good positioning, if not a lead, entering the singletrack.
EDIT: I thought all week that the race is this Sunday, but apparently it's next so I have a week off of racing again. That's a relief.
