tempo

out on the bike at 4.45 today, got in a bit of pace before work, not a bad way to start the day, i felt like ludo or serge doing the work before going to work at the factory. the belgies do it right. i appreciate the ethic. maybe i'll mount up the good lights and try for more of it as the weather gets better. it's supposed to turn to shit today so i had to get thru my window while it was open. i want, but i know i can't have. wheels and bikes dance thru my head, i want to consume but only on my terms, my deals, easier said than done. regardless i have a great bike that works just fine, the wheels may fold beneath me but that's racing. i have been reading what the pros do who are under time constraints, with wiser training schedules and better laid plans, i am no longer trying to be full pro but why not adopt that theory? focus is always better. two easy days and then a few hours of pace a week. it adds up. i have the program, use it. i guess we'll see what happens on sunday and go from there.
