State RR

This is how it went:

Good, then bad, then really good, then really bad.

Did anyone see my flip into the ditch after the climb on the last lap. It had to look impressive. I got at least 10 ft of air.

Next up, healing.

Doing the commute thing again...

Talked the boss into letting me commute again to get some needed miles in if I decide to race this weekend. So I will have saved 160 miles of gas in two weeks. I think that's pretty good.

So with the RR season coming to an end I hope it starts getting cool out so I can train for cross. It's time for a change.

I'm a commuter now

Yup, I finally did it. Drove the car to work, left it at my parents and then rode from Wayzata home to Woodbury. This of course means I'll have to ride back tomorrow morning. I've been squawking about doing this for months and finally decided to man up and do it. Started in the rain which finally stopped once I got to Minneapolis. Ran into this guy on Summit. I'm not quite sure why I'm doing this now that the season is pretty much over. Oh well. Maybe it will help me finish my 1st road race of the year if I decide to race the State RR Championships. Not sure about that one yet. I'm a little gun shy after getting my ass handed to me at the Tour of Granite Country.
