200 miles/3 days

Legs still feel really good. I recovered really well each day. Immediately after each ride I ate food and had a protein/recovery drink powder in a chocolate milkshake. Sleep was ok, Benon has had a 104F temp every night for a while and gets us up, my wife more than me though. We were at the Hospital this morning for a few hours and all they could say was to keep the same medicine and come back friday if it is still bad. 4 days in a row with a 104 fever.




Each day I really focused on slower cadence with hard gears. I tried always to be in a 2 or 3 gears ahead of what I'd normally ride. Sunday especially was a hard gear day. I'm trying to build some muscle since I haven't lifted in a gym in over 4 years. Weight sunday night was 177.5. People tell me that your body freeks out after riding and holds on to carbs/water for a while and then when you rest the weight goes down. We'll see. Either way, I'd like to get down to 165 by May and 161 by june.




Just when you think you can't fit anything else into this little store. I bought this for $180, if you want it for $180, let me know, otherwise, I will be riding it mondays hopefully.
