...only keep up with this blog like some. It serves as a great training diary and already looked back to try to remember last years doings....but so many holes. So to close the hole for next years recap of this year....
Last week; not great rides but got in my first around the Glenmore reservoir ride after work one day. Spent the Friday with work at the Turner Valley golf. And if it wasn't for clubs being rented and my manager in my group of four...the clubs probably wouldn't have survived. Not my strong side. I like consistency and there was only luck at a few occasions. Won the longest putt of the day!:)
Saturday a great ride with Alana, Jeff, Steve and Ryan. We did most of the trails around Barrier and lucked out with no major rain. 3 good climbs and an icebath attempt ...got just above the ancle for about 10 sec. Brrr
Sunday I rode Bragg Creek with Ryan and some of his friends. Perfect Sunday Toby ride. Still some good climbs so a bit more effort in than I needed but super nice day. Scouted a great trail for family when they get here...shuttle up and ride down then the lake....perfect. One day planned.
Monday site trip was exchanged with a team workshop team building event at work. Fun at the core lab and then to play bowling and minigolf; probably cant count it as exercise....Friday 18 hole did go in the book by the way..
Rest week so only road easy to and from work; and included COP weekly race in as well. Gees..first one of the year and 3 days later and Im still coughing! Short but a killer !
Learned that the hardtail has a crack ...hence headset issues .. Waiting for new frame
Friday was spent fighting with my bike then the expresso maker...got bike working (i broke the 12mm through axle and no way to get it out...thanks Marty). Still fighting the steamer on the mocha machine.
Fading now...
Raced in the snow at Canmore today; June 9th! Not as bad as I expected at the start. Poor Erik got his shoulder dislocated in a hole I almost endoed 3 of 3 chances! The last time I was pre-occupied looking for the puddle ..and whoops ..
Alana showing the mud off below..
Felt ok; didnt push as hard as Thursday to not kill the lungs, rode mostly safe, it was cold, im now finally warmed up (930pm).
Ended day with a huge taco salad..mmm
Racing tomorrow..or not...checking forecast and decide...5hr enduro could be fun but could be cold...
Happy Riding!
