It has been good to be in town all this week. There is nothing like home sweet home. It was a good week on the bike - 4 days of riding, almost 12 hours, and 190+ miles. Monday and Tuesday were climbing, Wednesday was time trial and tempo, Thursday and Friday were rest days, and Saturday was a century with "Time to Bleed" Mark. The weather has been nice and today did not disappoint either. The sun was out and their was only a slight, cool breeze. What was really spectacular was the red clover. It was in full bloom. There were fields and fields of red. Wow!
My schedule gets hectic for the next month or so with traveling to other window locations. It will be tough to get the time in on the bike but I will figure it out. What is nice is that my focus will be changing here a few weeks to getting the speed up so the hotel bikes will work fine for doing just that. The STP is less than eight weeks away.
The last week of watching the Giro has been great. The stage 12 TT was amazing. The scenery was incredible and the riders really pushed themselves. It was nice to see Levi and Lance do well. Let's hope that this last week Levi can get aggresive and pull off the win. He's got a great team to help him. Let's go Levi! If you have a moment, check out Lance's videos from the Giro at www.livestrong.com. There are a few hilarious ones.
