After a long (two-day) break I could finally make time to put in some K’s and sweat my worries away.
I skipped training on Thursday for family reasons and Friday for professional reasons. It was too much time for me, I usually start feeling “sick” after one day without training and even with my knee complaining I could feel the energy building inside me.
Biking Log - 20090509
I found a nice video on YouTube about commitment and working our way to our dreams, I am not alone!!!:
So, it is possible, I only need to keep proving it everyday, and to everyone (starting with myself).
This morning I went out to the Specialized bike shop here in Stuttgart and I started building up my small workshop to keep my bike in good shape as she deserves, because last week I rode half the way with the gear cable coming out of the housing and it shows I haven’t been treating her right… I noticed today the left “egg-beater” has a big slack and that adds up to the lack of confidence I have right now on my tires (almost lost the front twice today).
I ordered some new parts, they should come during the next week. Two Schwalbe tires and a set of neoprene grips. Next (if not the pedals) I think will be the cranks, I will probably buy me the RaceFace Deus because I am still not good enough for the FSA SL-K Compact with only two rings.
Tomorrow I want to check out the Waiblingen Triathlon, it’s a few kilometers away from here, I was there today checking it out, and I am getting really curious about the disciplin… I already chose the bike (1999€), you got to love this beauty!!
