Sitting at home Saturday night writing a blog, not because I don't have anything better to do it's because I'm sick. I don't know about everyone else but I have the ability to tell when I'm going to get sick usually 24 hours before, sometimes a little earlier. Last week I announced it about the 24 hour mark, but I can tell you I totally could have prevented it, well most of it. read more »

A few weeks ago I suggested to Markus Zimmer, the owner of the Bicycle Ranch bike shop in Scottsdale, Ariz. where I shop that the store’s Saturday ride should include a “base” group in addition to it’s A-, B- and C-ability grouped rides. I usually ride with the Bs and occasionally with the As. This is only in the spring and fall. During the summer I am in Boulder, Colo. I’m also in Scottsdale during the winter but almost never ride with the group then because the A and B rides are basically mini-races. That’s great when I’m preparing to race. read more »

I did some core, stability, strength training today but other than that zero time on the bike or run this week. I did get in the pool Tuesday but not really worth mentioning. Planning on riding with BR guys turkey day. Riding with AZ Masters Friday and Sunday. Saturday I will be at Bicycle Ranch at 730am come out for a great 40+ mile ride.
