Okay, if the Longhorns came beat the team of the century, I can ride 200+ this weekend. Let's go Vince, we are going to put it in the end zone!!Here it finally is, the last few days before my first 200+ day on the bike. A guy at worked asked me today if I was resting all this week for the ride. Of course not was my reply. I will ride Monday through Wednesday but just not as intense or not as long as I would normally would. Today was 75 minutes of easy spinning with a three 30 second all out efforts with 5 minutes of rest. Tomorrow will probably be the same with Wednesday being a real easy day of about 30 to 45 minutes. I'll rest Thursday and then only loosen the legs up on Friday morning with a very short ride. Saturday is the show.
I am just thankful for Christine and my family. They, especially her, have been tremendously supportive of my insanity and desire to do this. I know that it takes time away from everyone. I am really grateful for the patience and help. Thanks to my dad for the inspiration. Thanks to all of my friends for their support and competitive nature to push me (that's for the Hogg and Yoda). When I get done, I will "honor my hommies" with a pour of the water bottle to the curb in Portland!
Okay Pooh, enough of this, now give me a phat base line. What? Where's the snare? I can't hear the snare in my head phones? Give me a snare? Okay, there it is.

Inspiration..huh! Lets see....I am putting my hand in the bag....searching for something.....still searching.......almost there....I think I found it. Here it is.........just ride!
Ok first one not so good....When you hit mile 163. Not mile 162 or mile 164 but mile 163. Think of me! I will be on the couch watching the TDF and wondering how bad your arse hurts! In your honor...I will place a bottle of Astro Lube on the table. It will be my memorial to you! Just thinking of your ride makes my asre hurt. You da Man!
