Warm up at about 8am, had to head back and adjust the brakes and then go out, all systems go bike is set

warm up with a few laps of the course pre race.

Out on course, flatter quarter way into second lap. feeling pretty good and a solid pace, then rear flat blowup. No more latex tubes. Nice try though, bummed.

Sucked it up and enjoyed some beers and tacos when I got home, cool hanging with everyone fletcher hardys walsh and glad my dad came too.

Rode with Dad out on the LB-NB-HB loop. Good ride with a solid amount of hard efforts and pulls, hard 0-30+ starts off stoplights, etc. Legs felt solid and cruised the last 3-5 miles drafting off dad the way home.

Spent the rest of the day helping Sarahs bro Joe with bike maintenance then getting my CX bike ready for tommorow, it looks so damn sweet, ready to race. But I am seriously considering not going, 105 degree heat, I have been looking forward to CX racing ALL YEAR and I want to race more than anything, but that is just way too much, should have put a race out there at the end of the season...but yeah, will see in the AM and just play it by ear.

Work Issues let me off early, so I hit the local loop quick before doctors appt. Legs felt good and finally maybe recovered from last saturday. Just kept an even pace today and really nice out but windy.

Doctors just a checkup, but got a tetanus shot too, arm is progressively getting super sore by bedtime. Sarah and I went out to eat and saw "the town" and it was a totally rad movie. Anyways, tetanus, fuck my arms sore....not happy.

Got out for a quick ride on the cross bike after lots of wasting my afternoon time off at work at the toyota dealership and americas tires. Hate toyota. Lots of hate to go around fueling the hard efforts on the ride, including the old gramp who called me an asshole at the beginning of the ride, presumably for riding on the MAN MADE TRAIL THEY PUT IN THE WETLANDS SO THEY COULD BUILD FUCKING HOUSES on it. But yeah...I shouldnt be riding bikes on the DG trail, even if the signs say no bikes....im the asshole, forget common sense, pat the dog that runs off the leash tearing shit up and literally shitting on actual protected features, but fuck you cyclist, youre the real asshole!

After all the truck stuff I just needed that 1 word and im pretty sure I could have made renchaws headbutt look tame. Ok I guess I need to get that out. Anyways, got the ride done and made it back for applewood bacon cheeseburgers on the grill and vino.

Changed brake pads on both road and cx bikes, and took a ton of time adjusting...frustrating. Also mounted my Grifo Clincher tires and latex tubes, they look pretty rad! Always learning when working on bikes, takes a ton of time but in the end worth it, especially on the wallet!

Pretty mellow cruise on the CX bike on the "old" loop to keep it a little shorter, finished just as the coast was starting to get socked in with the marine layer and getting dark. Good ride but legs still fatigued from saturday.
