First puncture of the year


I got the first puncture of the year yesterday in the woods with my MTB. I had an extra tube with me so there will be no problem to change, I thought ... but I have a Center Lock on my wheels and no tools to remove it with, damn! I managed to get home by pumping the rear tire every 300 meters, it took a while but I came home. In all the rage, I took my cyclocross and dusted 10k hard to let of steam so the workout was pretty good anyway.

Have a nice day and carb the fuck up!

Friday


My Bianchi cyclocross

The weeks are flying away faster then ever now and it´s already friday. Today I set the alarm for 05:30 to hit the road and trails with my overhauled cyclocross for a recovery ride (the ride on Strava). +10 degrees, sun and a perfect tuned bike did the ride epic. This week will be a week with less training just because the lack of the time I have. I hope I have time to do two ride this weekend.

Since I converted to Vegan I have been feeling so much better generally. I don´t race right now so I have no proof if my cycling is better but the feeling when I ride is signifikant better. Previously my lowest weight has been 78 kg (this is in the middle of the summer when I´m leanest) but now the scale shows 75 kg. Thats pretty good for a 190 cm guy...I think.

My focus is now to sleep properly, at least 7,5-8 h, to drink plenty of water and to eat good meals with lots of carbs, like I´ve done all the summer now with good result.

Have a nice evening and carb the fuck up!!
