Totally a bum for 3+weeks
The second the Madison was over in LA just over 3 weeks ago I hung up my cleats for one of my first real “REAL” breaks. Ya last year I took some time off, but I snuck a few rides in here of there. This year’s break I have totally been your typical American Male. McDonald’s(once), Nachos, Beer/Cider, M&M’s, Grease’y Spoon Diners, less than 200 calories burned in daily activities, and depression. Off time is great.
Even better news is the fact that I will most likely be riding my bike out of the saddle for an extended period of time, because of the mangina. You know that when Chann Mcrae won USPRO he had spent nearly a month of riding out of the saddle due to a saddle sore surgery! HHHmmm?
As of this week I am slowly getting back into exercise. Actually last week I had to run through the Chicago Airport and I paid for it dearly, as I was sore for nearly 4 days because of it. Weight baring exercises…..my favorite!

You will be relatively, okay. Just pace yourself, if you can. You are not in need of anything except divine guidance! I pray for you daily. LOVE YA11

Brad, not that it matters to you, but my hard drive crashed last week. All fixed now, but I lost everything I had saved. That included the website that showed the video of the bell lap of the USPRO Crits, where you talking about what was going on during the end of the race. That is a really cool site, and I wondered if you could send me a link, or at least tell me what it’s called. Thanks for the info!
I was at the bike shop today, learning how to set up my trainer. Ashley said the trip to the Keys was great, and that was his fish!
