Training Camp: Day 4

So I figured since I’ve got a little downtime, I’d go ahead & post today’s report early. We’d normally be in team meetings right now, but the massuse from Living Well Dallas is here, and we’re getting some 1-on-1 massage time throughout the afternoon.

Today was another gorgeous day. The wind was nearly non-existent and the temps were in the 60’s. We rolled out to the Robinson Ranch loop again. This time, we worked on a paceline with 30 second rotations. I found them easier than the fast rotation that we were doing yesterday. More importantly, we worked on leadouts again- this time from a bit further away from the “finish line.” This time, we nailed them… I got moved further back in the leadout train on each lap, and felt better as we went. It was a great training day.

As soon as Casey gets finished with her massage, we’re heading to the store to get some extra Diet Coke for the 3 day trip to Oklahoma. I’m looking forward to the change of scenery. I had no idea that drivers could get more hateful than the ones in Memphis, but Dallas has proved me wrong!

    / beets are nasty. I don’t care what any nutrionist says.

    where’s that Robinson Ranch loop? I tried to find it on mapmyride but no luck. Any idea of the road names or cities?

  2. Oh come on, only a few frustrated folks hate cyclists. The rest of the Population is quite ok with us pedal crazies. We should not forget that most of them never sat on a bike in traffic, and are clueless what it’s like. So keep smilin an wavin at em!

    PS: Beets are yummy.
