Post - Wreck

The past week has been an off week for me due to the two wrecks I suffered and coming down with an infection. On Saturday I was finally able to get back on my bike. I went out for a 4 hour ride in the snow and the cold. My legs felt very blllaahh, with no zap at all. After a couple hours i made a stop at my grandmas house to refuel with some rice and potatoes.....mmmmm :). I climbed Zimmerman at the end of my ride and felt ok. The following day I did the Molt-Buffalo Trail Loop. It was a pretty cold day, but the major problem was my legs. At the beginning they felt ok, but towards the end they just seemed to run out of gas and for the first time in a while I think I started to bonk. Going up Zimmerman Trail at the end of the ride almost caused me to pull over and stop my legs were so dead. I have today off and go back to training on Tuesday with a 1 hour ride.

This weekend me, Hoiness and the pro that I have been training with (Josh) will head up to Red Lodge to do some climbing on the bike. Our plan is to ride from Red Lodge as far up the Beartooth Pass as possible, then come down and do it again. Should be a blast!
