I missed the saturday ride due to an alarm clock error. I think part of it may have been my body telling me I was exhausted. I made good on it on sunday though. I rode the recovery ride sunday morning which gave me about 48 miles of which I tried to pull as often as possible while we were riding into the wind. My plan is to ride tuesday and thursday.
My first road race is this saturday. I'm a little nervous due to the fact that I've never competed in one. On top of it, there is only one other guy that I know of on our team that is racing Cat 5 so I won't have much help on the course. I'm going to try and glean any and all information I can about road racing from my friends this week. This race should be interesting!

Re: the road race . . . put a post on the "Road Ride" section of the SORBA forum (http://www.sorba.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=11) asking for some pointers. There's a huge roadie trend going on right now so it's a good time to ask. And you'll get plenty of answers I know. I'd say mention that I sent you but that may end up hurting instead of helping . . .
No riding this weekend. Saturday we were blasted by massive thunderstorms with a tornado or two in the general area (no touchdowns near us). Yesterday Lori spent a good part of the day preparing for her classes this week. I fought a headache . . . and lost . . .
Can't wait to hear how the boys race went.
Seriously - post on the forum. You'll get some good advice . . .
