For About 9 months out of the year my happy place is where I go to slow down and think about stuff. Or just kill some time.
But to do that I need my privacy and for 9 months out of the year I pretty much get it. But for about 3 months in the summer I gatta share this place with many others. On weekends this lot is packed with vacationers. And while its expected and I for sure don't mind it does put a dent in my H.P. time. At least the quality time. Its never to the point that would make me stop my daily trek to this spot but it does alter my times and length in doing so.
Had a great ride on the cross yesterday. The last time I rode it I ran into a 35mph car. Hour on the road, hour in the woods. No music.

Looking ahead (as I always do) I have set my return to racing on July 25th at the WORS race. Also starting then will be my first track race on July 27th and running weekly after.
In less than two weeks I will be spending a well deserved week in northern Wisco on our yearly family pilgrimage up there. Except this year its not called vacation, I'm calling it training camp. From July 10th thru the 17th. Miles and miles of beautiful northern country roads makes any training scenario tolerable. And while I never really actually train per say, I will be riding a shit ton.
And I say close enough.

Awesome! I'm heading up the northwoods that same week. I just ride to enjoy the peace n quiet and gorgeous scenery (and the exercise). Good luck in your training. Maybe we'll cross paths if its close to eagle river!
