It has been a busy, busy summer, and I am happy to say that things are winding down. The Furnace Creek 508 didn’t go as planned, and our rider ended up dropping out at the top of Towne’s Pass. It was a tough decision, but stomach problems prevailed. That is the main reason for any rider dropping out. That was the second time that Claire and I had to witness our rider making that decision at that exact location.
I hope to have more time to do some fun training this winter. I have been out on a couple of runs and a couple of shorter rides. Claire and I took Mathilda up to Healdsburg last weekend in the trailer. The next day I rode over Sweetwater and had a blast. I rode the rollers the other night for the first time this year. With the attachment of the Killer Headwind I can get quite a workout in an hour.
