Dee feeding the Llama in Bogota

Flyin'

After a return to the bikes follows our European sojourn we had a hard return to training this week.  It was fun however to reconnect with Adam, Brian, Dave, and Norby as we were getting some quality workouts together in June with no BS; Get on your bike, step on the gas and go.  

Sunday was my first TT in the season series and just Dee's third. Expectations are always high but tempered by the fact that we really hadn't done any hard training in a month - unless you count those mountain passes in Europe - and still another month till the next hard racing.

However the day was great for a TT; slight headwind down and tailwind back. We both nailed it and I was two ticks better than the course record I set last year while Dee just missed the course record by a second.  Who says wine, cheese, and bread is a bad training diet?
