Arm me with Harmony

SO this week is going good with training. I got in a good ride monday and a ride this morning before work. I plan on riding again this afternoon and then an hr and a half tomorrow. I got a race coming up this weekend so I won't ride on Friday. Here is the schedule of races leading up to Fayetteville...

Feb 20 - Road Race at Walburg
March 7 - 20k TT in Denton
March 7 - Crit in Denton
March 8 - Road Race in Denton
March 21 & 22 - Fayetteville (2 road races and a time trial)

Also We've had a slight change of plans regarding the catagory I plan to race. I renewed my license and will be racing in the same cat I left off 2 years ago. Gonna be a shock to the legs but things are oging well so I'm optomistic about it. Here is a shot of my ride Friday night along the trinity near downtown....

Also - if you can't figure out the title to this blog its a lyric from my song of the ride -WORD!

I know I know

There has been a flood of email requests inquiring what the hell I've been doing...well I haven't been sitting on my ass Ive been riding lol. Last weekend Nate came into town and we got in 85 miles over the weekend and hooked up with a group of 8 riders towards the end of our ride on sunday. all would have been well had I not hit that patch of gravel and busted my ass. Oh well it happens.

I started upping my intensity last week also. Did my first set of intervals for the year and threw in a day of just hill repeats....fun fun.

Then this last weekend I went to Longview and rode the "Freeze your Fanny" ride. It was alot of fun getting to see a bunch of folks I hadn't seen in a long time. I got in 60 miles on saturday at a good pace. At mile 21 I got dropped on a steep climb and I really think I could have got back on with the group (even for just a few more miles) had they hadn't of started attacking . When I got dropped we where averaging almost 22mph and after riding the last 40 miles by myself I finshed up with an 18mph avg. Not bad considering the wind and hills. Over all I was pretty happy.

The next big ride on the horizon is March 7th and 8th in Denton. I have a 20k Time Trial that Saturday morning, a Criterium that afternoon at 4, and a Road Race on Sunday.
