snowpack sucks

Well outdoor cycling has been good for a few weeks until today, I made my way back down to the pain palace to log some time on the trainer, my long lost pal. Now most of you remember me tearing up 4 hour rides in January but I cant ride more than 1.5 now. Spring is coming too slow and I need to get outside. I did manage to get 4+ outside on Saturday with a group of fast Porcs so that was good. Full on fenders and 10 lbs of clothing doesnt make me feel very fast but I tried anyway. At least the Top Shelf Six Cheese Bagel tasted really good after 4 hard hours.

I am debating the MTB race next Saturday. It would be a lot of fun throwin down for 3 hours for old times sake and I would like to see if I can still hang in with the Expert 19-29 group, and maybe catch a couple Pro's. I may just roll down Friday and sleep in the Van, race and head home. Good thing gas is so cheap..... I got the new carbon Epic that really wants to race. I need to ask Sly what the latest tubeless secrets are so I can avoid flatting. New Crossmax SLR wheels , Specialized Fast Trak LK(non UST) Tires, will Stans keep things tight using the Mavic valve? Anyone
