Training Log Archive: Bash

'Bent had already done the short run prescribed for him by Coach Spaff today, so we were careful to keep this ride as ankle-friendly as possible. We rode first to Palgrave Village where I voted for a candidate who has no chance of winning. Then we headed to Albion Hills to ride hilly single track in the north end, including a newly built section of trail we hadn't seen before.

It's the first time I've done lots of bike training in October-March and I was impressed at how much difference it made. My power feels better than usual for early spring but as usual, I'll have to get more riding under my belt to regain my feel for technical trails. I chickened out of a few things I know I can ride and steered too close to some obstacles, knocking my left foot out of the clip a few times.

It's supposed to rain for the rest of the week so this might be the last Albion ride for awhile.

While watching more Daily Shows saved on the PVR. Jon Stewart was talking about U.S. Senator Jon Kyl who stated that abortions make up over 90% of what Planned Parenthood does and thus they should not get federal funding. The correct number is about 3% and no federal money is allowed to be spent on abortions anyway. His office later said that his statement in the Senate was "not intended to be a factual statement". Politicians can be so entertaining...

Only on Attackpoint would that happen... Thanks for your dedication, Ken!
