creaky start

We had our first mini "training camp" today. We rode out of Beartown Lakes Reservation in Geauga County.

We did two repeats of a little TTT around a 3 mile loop of some pretty crappy roads: Auburn, Winchell, Frost, and Harner. Frost and Harner roads are right up there near the top of the list of worst paved roads around here, especially since the plows worked them over this winter. But that also means there is hardly any traffic.

For me, the first effort was pretty good. The second time around my quads were pretty unhappy getting over the little rolling hills and were tired for the rest of the ride. It's going to be a while before my legs are race ready!

From there we headed down to Hiram Rapids and did a couple medium sized climbs before heading for home.

Apart from a couple mechanical mishaps, it was a good day.

Sounds like a fun time was had by all. Watched some tremendous wrestling yesterday in Ann Arbor and it was a TON warmer than it was at home too! I saw 48* up north. BTW, how does that work??
