End of the rest period - 10:10
I've just come off a restful couple of weeks. I even had a weekend when I did not race. I've also been very lucky to have my health hold up nicely, being careful not to go too far into the red in racing or training. I had the pleasure of being the race director for a race of 13 riders and 6 officials. Yep, it rained for the first time in a few months on Saturday.
Well, Rachel is off to a wedding in New York. She will be away for about a month. Her friend Lucia from school in White Plains is getting married to Jason. I'll have plenty of entertainment, with the Football Confederations Cup starting this week and the full and extensive coverage of the tour starting in July.
So now, the build-up towards the championships and the Coota Classic starts. While Rachel is away I plan to have some very big days on the bike, mostly on Sunday. The plan is to get ready for the NSW Masters Road Championships, to be held in Wagga. Terry was also thinking about coming out for some of these epics in his effort to prepare for the Mont 24 hour Race this year, to be held in October. Of course I’ll try to put together a bunch of riders to make these long hauls at least somewhat entertaining, maybe we could try the race pace ride with all the attacks between Breadalbane and Gunning again.
