Lobster Valley

30 07 2008

Friday
6×4″ intervals. Ouch. Climbed Michele- double Ouch.
Sprint with Cole at the end: max 1-sec power 1299w. Won.

Saturday
Fairly easy ride with the OSU crew. Pam snotted on me- groooooss. I got an even better 1-sec power:

Sunday
I’d asked Cole and Jim if they wanted to do Alsea Falls at 9am a few days ago. I changed my mind to 10am (Tour) and sent out an email to the team listserv early Saturday… but they weren’t there at 10, so maybe they couldn’t make it, or maybe they showed up at 9.

I started to switch mentally from group mode to solo mode, but (fortunately) I caught Pete and Gretchen and went to do Lobster Valley with them. It was really, really awesome. The most gruesome part was climbing back up to the Mary’s Peak Rd. turnoff on Hwy34 from Alsea- 11 minutes of straight, 8mph climbing. After 5.5hrs riding and 7hrs in my chamois, I rolled down my driveway with 97 mi on the computer… almost-century.
