Yes, I have officially labeled my off-season "2 weeks of gluttony". I have enjoyed not going on any rides for the last two weeks and I have enjoyed eating (and drinking) whatever I can get my hands on. I have gained weight and better yet I have finished my weeks off the bike with the desire to start training again. The plan for the rest of the off season is long slow rides with some climbing at a very slow pace mixed in. The goal is to build a really strong endurance base so that I can have more strength at the end of races next year.
I also wanted update everyone on my newest bike. I bought the frame in August and proceeded to buy the components to piece together the rest of the bike. By the end of August I had went to a bike fitting to get the best position for me on the bike and then used this info to build the bike. After a month of riding the bike as I had built it and adjusting a few shifting issues, I can now report that the bike is awesome and ready to race.
Now a few pictures from Kelsey and my trip to Yosemite National Park. Enjoy.
