Giro de San Francisco

Giro di SF (40 mile crit):
my legs are sore to the touch, but feel OK on the bike. Levi's not allowed to race today since it's our District crit championship and it's only northern CA/nevada amateurs and D3 pros eligible. so it's basically all the same guys as normal, just not Levi. 120 starters, 50 some finishers. I finished towards the front and was pretty happy to be there. a good way to start to wind down the season. I felt pretty good and am looking forward to recovering and getting some long easy rides in to get ready for the finale of the season....

the Everest Challenge... boo-yeah!

oh yea and I raced last weekend on my new Campy 10 speed stuff. very cool, but occasionally I shifted the wrong direction since I'm still a recent convert! currently running 13-26 for the everest challenge, which meant that I spent a lot of the weekend wearing out my 13 (in saturday's RR, I literally spent the last 30 miles without shifting. i'd be spinning it, some crazy fit pro would attack and I'd
spin it faster! uphill downhill whatever it was all about 30 mph). It also means that I'm committed to only having a 39x26 for the upcoming beastly climbing event... I'll be all set for the Dirty Dozen too! then I can go back to cool fast guy gearing.
