Ok, it's been a long and lazy week. Worked like 15 hours of OT, sick baby, too much riding last week and the awards dinner last night was such a good time that wifey and I booked a hotel room and got a hair shitfaced. This week I will work on a life plan/training plan. Once again I am not mentally burnt out on riding at all but physically I need some recovery. Despite everyone telling me not to I will ride HTT next Sunday but between last wednesday and then I won't have more than 2 easy rides in to keep the legs working.
Starting this week I am going to catch up on some side work and hopefully reorganize my garage(this happens 2-3 times per year as it's never good enough).Hopefully I can paint the foundation of my house before the leaves from my ginormous oak tree take over the lawn. I am also trying to book a year end vaca. for the wife and I without the kids. I will also attempt to redeem myself from my food and beer binge as it's been a relatively non stressful week(I am drinking tonight to fend off last night's hangover however).
Hopefully in the next week or 3 I can order my new frame whether it be a top fuel or a Yeti ASRC. In the end this will be a sub 22 lb fs. I may consider selling my superbly ss and set the fatty up as my go to ss rig(gears for the winter). Also, as you can tell by my lack of paragraphs and long, endless sentences I have a difficult time accomplishing complex goals. My mind always goes for simple simple simple and it usually works at making money but hinders my ability to accomplish larger goals that I have like starting my own side business and building frames. I pride myself on my day job so much that I am disappointed if I make a mistake yet that kills me when trying to do something new on my own time.
This is the last part for today. I see myself being around the bike seen for the rest of my life. I blew off a yamaha ride day last weekend at englishtown to do a century with
@Riggedfmx . It's always been two wheels, now it's two wheels and no motor. Thoughts for the next year or so? Ride my bike. Planned events between now and next year this time so far....Hillier than thou, Jorba Jam, possibly a cross race but not likely, Erie 80(potentially),Woods Hollow MTB race, Cathedral pines SS, NJ fat bike series but contemplating the reality of me doing
@jimvreeland 's epic without Wolfhammers($400 is big ching for boots), Long Branch fat bike race, Hell Of Hunterdon, SSP, some random endurance events between mass and h2h series as well as 1 or 2 ss cat one races. Big events are The Longest Day(in a dreamy voice I would like the record one day), W101, Stew45 and potentially Shenandoah or leadville. I know it's a lot and I will thin it out and maybe add some other fun events. Basically these are all potential with the exception of sap, w101,TLD, Stew45 and the fatback series. Whew.....until next time....my fingers just bonked.
