Here are a few quickie things I have learned thus far:
- How to ride just behind and in between two riders so I can get the benefit of a draft and keep up for longer! (Thank you Rachel and Sara!)
- To react quickly to a red light instead of starting to slow down wayyyy far in advance.
- To react just as quickly when the light is green -- Green means GO. And these girls do not dawdle.
- I can actually do one-legged drills on the road. Both legs too!
- I rode over THREE cattle-guards today. :)
- Riding over Gates Pass not as a workout, but as part of the cooldown. :)
All for now! Gotta eat, sleep and then train some more!

Nice! You are going to be a superstar on the bike again this year!
I'm envious you're in Tucson- winter just arrived here so the lovely Arizona sun would be sooo nice right about now! Happy training :)
OMG teach me how to brake properly at a red light! I fall way behind because I start braking 14 blocks in advance!
Lisa -- You are bang on right about the Arizona sun!
Theia -- LMAO! I have learned that riding a bike is different that driving my car. Seriously! LMAO!!
Enjoy the training and weather!
Over the cattle guards. Now you are really ready for 22X.
I thought the deal was to time the braking so as to be going the max speed when the light turned green.
