Midrace adjustment to 9 speed...

well, my computer sucks and I had a good post written...and then it shut down. Sweet. I should probably utilize the save now button at the bottom...So, this is going to be short and itll suck...just like my computer and my race yesterday. I still have some post ironman cobwebs. Im improving, but I still dont have the snap and the range I had before the race, it still hurts a little too much. Just some more rest and easy training will hopefully take care of that. I also busted my 13 cog mid race...campy 10 doesnt work to well on makeshift campy 9, no sir it does not. I guess it was time for a new cassette anyway, too bad I have to sell my left nut for it. The only advantage is for the little while I was running 9 I had a bit lighter bike, man, could I feel the difference!!

Anyway, one more week of work and then I get to focus on some racing once again. Im pretty pumped for that. No more manual labor to hinder recovery, no more work to get in the way of training. I cant wait.

PS People shouldnt hammer it through feedzones, its very un euro. Being this is America and not Europe, though, I kind of expect it. If i didnt need to pick up a feed damn right I'd hammer through because thats what everyone else would do. So, next time, whoever ahead of me braked in the feed zone im running into you and causing a huge pile up because at least I wont have to waste a ton of energy to catch back onto the peleton I wont catch onto anyway because you let a giant gap open up....and now Im done...catch all 5 of you readers later
