Back - On The Road

So it has been a rough (lot of) months in terms of riding. But this past week, I broke down and started training for the Hotter'n'Hell Hundred at the end of August in Wichita Falls. Boy howdy have my standards been lowered. I used to ride the best trails in the world moments from my home and now I have settled on training for a road ride - it is pathetic.

It does feel good to be on the Ellsworth again. Even on the road, the Specialist is a fun bike to ride. Last week I posted a 10 miler, then a 15 miler and this evening, I did a 19 miler. The temperature is high, but I have been evening rides so it isn't that bad. The HH100 will be in the middle of the day in August though, so you can bet it will be tough.
