No ride. Work was crazy busy for a cold, windy Tuesday. Once home my dad and I put back the closet that came crashing down 3:00 am that morning. I think you could do pull-ups on it now!
I work all day today 9-8 but plan on a short mtb spin this morning. Not looking like I'll get out on the new tires before DK. Well I guess Friday in Emporia but then it will be too late to change. I usually don't put a lot of angst into races but damn I do obsess about tire selection! I was given a set of some limited edition Terravail Cannonball tires. They normally run 38 but these are 42. The 38's tend to run a bit big so these aren't ginormous my any means but big enough. But too big? What if it's muddy? Tire clearance? Ahhhh! I will say the bit I have ridden them around the parking lot at work, etc is that they are super comfy. I guess for 200 miles I will take the extra comfort. Nonetheless I'm still tweaking some about it!
I made the fillings for some vegan burritos last night. The plan is to have some cold burritos at the checkpoints. Not even sure I will eat them but it's nice to have options other than sweet things during long races. I also packed some Fritos. The last time I did DK it was crazy hot and humid. Fritos saved me!
Time to gear and ride.
