I got back from Paris and Boston on Tuesday. I'm trying to maintain a bit of my jetlag so I can wake up before 7 AM every day. I'm going to try and work in some trainer rides in the morning.
Today was my first day back on the bike, and the first Seward race since I came back. The 11 days off the bike was obvious. I felt pretty good at the beginning, but I couldn't keep up the pace for the whole race... Hopefully, I can get back into racing shape by the end of June, when the State Criterium Championships are. There are also two races the weekend after this one, so I'd like to get into shape by then. Unfortunately, Greg (an old friend) and his girlfriend (*gasp*) are coming up for a visit... I'll have to try to get in some rides on the side...
The bike has a weird creak coming from the bottom bracket area. I hope it's not a frame crack... I'm going to have it checked out soon
