I didn't start work until 2 today so I had a morning gym sesh with Berend after one of our amazing 'step it up breakfasts'. I tweaked my back a couple of days ago and ended up seeing a physio to get it sorted out, nothing too serious though but I'm still going to rest it for a few days so I decided to just spin the legs on the stationary bike. We got out the Spin DVD's and went for a ride through North Carolina, pedelled for just over an hour which was a really good work out. Every time the cadence went up and the gearing got harder and I felt like slacking I kept thinking of the Garbanzo DH race in this years Crankworx and how harsh it was going to be, the thought of the 14+ minutes race track kept me motivated to push harder even though my legs were dead.
I'm anxious about riding again, it's been nearly a 4 month break off the bike for me, pedalling on a stationary bike inside a gym while it's snowing outside is the only riding i've done. I feel hungrier than ever to ride though and i'm constantly day dreaming about riding in the bike park again. In a few days something good is arriving so i'm really looking forward to that, I just need the snow in the valley to melt away. 5 months ago when I saw it raining I was wishing it was snowing, now when I look outside and snow flakes are falling I want it to turn to rain so this place thaws out.
