Rode 50.2 miles tonight. Hauled ass. 30mph on the flats at one point. Legs are going to be all squiggly tomorrow. |

It was cool. |

| First day not riding since last Saturday. So windy, so cold. Just ate Thai food, too, so I'll be lacing my mountain bike wheels on the toilet tonight... |

| Cold? It appears we got rid of that nonsense, at least for the next week.

Paid today...
Decision time: suspension fork, mtn bike shoes + pedals, FSA SL-K road brakes, or road shoes? Each will cost roughly $200, road brakes being the cheapest option. Brakes are approx $100 my cost, plus I could probably sell my old ones to a guy that's building a bike at the shop right now. |

| Cold rain, go away. Wouldn't mind if it was warm rain. Dumped buckets on us today and my next race is a week away. It'll be a sloppy mess again, I'm sure. |

| Sooner or later I could use some new shoes. Back brake pads are worn. I think my bottom bracket is about done. My wheel still rattles. #old

| Saw some cyclists on the Internets did #30daysofcycling in April.
That's a long time without a day off. Plus, they must live where the weather doesn't get so bad, because we had some crummy wet days in April.
I did #21daysofcycling.
