well, looks like i'm finally outta my funk and back in the swing of things!! the beautiful weather has definitely been a help. rode LM yesterday for 9.3 then today tried to recreate the 'tour de jason' from the sussex lot (thanks again for humoring my PMs jay) and logged in 13.5. i don't know if i could have gone another lap today as my legs were starting to cramp up, but this is the most consecutive trail milage i've put in all summer. the thing that sorta sucks is that now that i've ridden there a few times and know the trails a bit better, i've basically increased my mph from a hair over to seven to just about nine. if i only could've done that at the LMC i could've placed a lot better. oh well, next there's always next year....
