Pioneer Day - recovery ride
The "World Famous" (literally) Shooting-Star Saloon, Huntsville, Utah. A few years ago, they had a big banner on the side of the building for Pioneer Days, that said "Pie & Beer Days". Kind of a "gentile" spoof.
Yesterday was a very good 51-mile tempo ride. A couple hill sprints and a serious spoke bender at the end, made for a darn good morning. A pretty good burn in the legs and nothing to eat prior to, or during the three-hour event was exactly what was needed.
This morning was a moderately paced recovery ride. Call it 33 miles. There were a couple times I wanted to jump on it hard, but soon realized I needed to back-off. Again, nothing to eat prior to, or during the ride left me feeling a tad weak after. Still, pretty good.
There is a lot to make up for what has been lost earlier. On top of that, fundraising has stalled. No bueno.
Tomorrow needs to be a complete rest day, with something considerable for Thursday. We'll see.....
Something a bit random........Steve Marriott - 30 Days in the hole
Ride HARD!
