#334: China, part 2
Once again I am headed out to China for a few days. The trip will be short and sweet, not much time to look around. Part of it is that I don’t want too long of an interuption of training at this time of the year, the other part is that my first race is next weekend (Rouge Roubaix). I am coming back on Wednesday after spending only two full days (three nights) in country. Unfortunately, I am missing our training race tomorrow which should be starting around the time I am flying up to Detroit (first leg of the trip).
I think I am in pretty good shape despite how hard my solo ride today ended up. It wasn’t terribly long at 62 miles, but it was windy and I was alone out there. Before I did my ride, I took Andrea’s Bulldog CX tires off my Dura Ace wheelset and put my Bontrager Hard Case tires on. Those are going to be my wheels for Rouge. My bike, at this point, will be my Felt. Andrea’s team Trek Madone came in on Thursday, mine should be soon, but I might not be ready to race it in the few days that I have before Rouge.
Well, I suppose I should pack some clothes. Andrea is out to race Spa City 6 hour. It is an NRC mountain event in (relatively) nearby Hot Springs, Arkansas.
