Thursday  Off

Friday Off

Saturday 10 mile bike ride

Sunday  24 mile bike ride

Had a good week. Took some days off in preparation for the weekend’s cycling base training camp with Claude Bacon, Chris Schmidt, and Dean Adams. All of us worked together at Lindsey Wilson College and Chris was Lindsey’s first cycling team coach. At one time, Claude was his assistant coach.

The weather didn’t cooperate on Saturday. It rained and then drizzled along with 20-40 mph wind gusts and 30 degree temperatures. After about five miles out on a planned 35 mile ride, we turned around and spent the day sightseeing in Austin. Sunday and Monday were much better. The wind still howled, but the temperatures were good and the weather was sunny. We rode from Cedar Park to Liberty Hill and back on Sunday and did half of the Mansfield Dam Loop on Monday. It wasn’t quite the mileage we had planned, but it was good riding, great fellowship, and a wonderful way to start the training year.

Can't believe you cats didn't want to ride in rain and 20 mph wind Saturday. Glad to hear you got some other good rides in. I'm only slightly jealous of the above freezing temps there.
