Summer break

This last week was nice. I decided this year to avoid burnout and take a week completely away from the bike. The objectives:

1. recharge the mental batteries,
2. rest the legs,
3. reset the eating plan to maintain my weight,
4. find time to get caught up on stuff around the house, and
5. keep the desire to ride the bike high.

Through this break, I should be able to help keep the motivation to ride deep into the fall high.  Additionally this is also a nice segway into resetting the training back to base mode.  Now i'm back to re-establishing the aerobic base for the coming late season endurance festivals such as D5-0 and the quickly approaching CX season. From here on its long weekend rides at nice comfortable pace again. I'm not racing anymore in June (skipping Ponca, might go take pics though and will be in ABQ for the omaha RR weekend). I'll be back to racing later in the summer and hopefully should come out swinging again just in time for CX.

So with that here's to riding!

Cheers
