That's a good thing. Roads and path were wet, but full fenders did their job and other than over-dressing I was dry.
The over dressing came from having a 20mph tailwind up the path and cranking it over all the way in. It was pretty dark out there. Overcast. The heavy thick clouds to the east really knocked down the sunrise.
I almost stopped for a few pictures but, I just put my head down and motored in. One or two closer than I'd like calls with a few cars but for each of those instances there were 20+ cars that were respectful of my presence on the road.
Came across the link to Bonnie Ford's ToC write up on ESP.com (only because it "cross" referenced with Timmie J- who it sounds like is slated to race both days at Battenkill). will have to read it later - maybe over lunch... gonna be rough making it all the way to lunch... but i gotta get the body fueling itself a bit more. need some caloric debt... this last feasting phase was a bit overboard, need to hit a fasting sequence for a little bit... that or ride 5 hours a day everyday for a week or so. And since that isn't going to happen... gotta have some discipline... that or (thanks to molly linking it) maybe I gotta try the Drip, that or start drinking coffee again (I had a dream I made my first pot of coffee at 5pm one night before making dinner - scared me enough to wake me up). If Alec D says it works, well that's almost good enough for me to try it out. It does make a bit of sense, but drinking one ounce every five minutes AND eating 6 times a day. Oh man ya might as well be training instead of working. But like everything maybe an element can be used to fake my brain out.
and there - that's all I got for the moment... i feel like taking a nap

Ya, Alec doesn't mention how much coffee you put in the mixture. Fail!
i ain't putting coffee in my system, none since... august.
i concur with molly though. Instead of drinking the 'drip' just drink some black coffee. Zero calories and a fat burning metabolic supercharger.
you are still off coffee?! HOLY CRAP DUDE. wtf. i thought that was just for cross?
yeah - still no coffee
why bother going back on it... i'm functioning at the same or higher level without it.
sure i'm tired at times but much more even keel. no headaches if i don't get a cup in me soon enough, no crashes if i don't get enough. And man were those crashes painful.
Hell not to mention that stuff isn't cheap - i'd rather spend $10 a week on beer than coffee.
