This weekend officialy started off my 2008 season. Having ridden only 3 times all year my expectations were low going into the TT on Firday. I went harder than I had planned on and thought that I put in a decent time, however the 40th place it earned said otherwise. It is February.
I was a litle nervous about the 90 (OK 89) mile road race because the last time that I rode that long was early September. After getting shot down going for the first king of the mountain climb, I decided to just try and survive in the pack. My legs never cramped and although they had no top end what so ever, they could still last for 3:40. Suprising, and it is only February. After the first ten crahes in the first two laps everything settled down and in the end it came down to a sprint. Of course this is perfect for me since I am pretty much the worlds strongest man. Despite my lack of power I finished 26th and moved from a dismal 40th to a pathetic 27th in the GC. It is February.
I am currently stuck in a hotel near the airport because there are no seats on planes out of here. Hopefully I can get out early tomorrow so that I can go skiing before class resumes on Tuesday.
