man it was hard generating any speed - this morning was nice, chill, mellow.
but the week is taking a toll on me.
life stress hit hard last night and this morning.
ride home was deserted. As slow as I was riding I was sure someone would come along and motivate me to lift the pace. Nope. No one.
I've realized that there are two things that keep my mood wicked positive and one of them is Racing. April, when i raced every weekend, was the best month this year. I need to race again. It isn't just about cyclocross, although it really is, it is that competition.
Racing.
As much as I suck at it, and man I might be the slowest big guy out there, and somewhat low on the fitness totem pole too, but it does something to my brain. It works.
It helps.
Mystic Velo is coming up, and i hope that still works to get to and race at. After that one I'm going to have to take a long hard look at the summer... maybe if I can work out a solid plan of racing and not racing with purpose then I'll survive until Cyclocross season starts...

I'll let you know. If I drag Reuter down, we'll have to come by to see your hide out.
Sounds like you need some bigger wheels. Except proportionately you should be riding a 36er.
