my legs are really sore now. went for a fast kulai 150km ride with the cx guys on sat. with all the fast riders there, the ride was pure suffering for 4-5 hours. avg speed was 32.6kph, and that can be considered really fast for the small group. once we reach the hilly part, everybody started to have a turn whacking in the front and suffered together. up down up down my heart rate and muscles were screaming at me. and on the way back along the highway 3 of us drafted a track at 65kph for 2km. haha. it was fun and painful.

couldnt wake up in time this morning for an earlier loop, and when jason called me at 610 i was still in bed, reason beign that i've forgotten to set the alarm because i was too shagged out. so in the end i went down to thomson at 830 and went to recce the marina race loop with rest of the team.

i foresee that its gonna be pure suffering next sunday. 50mins + 3 laps. avg speed will be in the high 40s or even 50s. and if you make a wrong or too wide a turn, gaps open and it will be very hard to chase back. it will be good to finish with the pack next sunday or maybe give a shot for the sprint. but not another dnf please...

right now my butt hurts when im sitting on the chair. i should sleep soon. long day tomorrow.

bah.
