LOVE WATTS, BABY BAILS, AND HOW'S YOUR FRUIT BASKET?
ANY TIME YOU DRIVE TO A RIDE, it's pretty much a lock you're gonna do it regardless. But, when there's a legit tsunami warning...
This should be fun.
Yeah, we'll be at sea level right when it's supposed to hit.
Perfect.
Lots of spectators and safety authorities were out, but no tsunami to speak of...
... but, there was a helluva a tsunami starting at 8:15am...
... the feared and awesome Thug Ride.
It would be my first hard ride in months. Coming off my recent bout with Covid, I felt decently ready...
... afterall, my resting HR was back in the low 40s.
As expected, I struggled when things got hot. But, it felt good. Really good. The base miles I'd been putting in kept me in there for...
The pain.
The shame.
The chasing.
Meanwhile, a certain gentleman is riding about as good as I've ever seen. Up on the front most of the day. Pulling into the bottom of climbs. Making it over the very punchy walls.
Bro, what's new?
Well... I've been on a few hot dates.
And there it was, the secret to his dashing show of power...
... love watts.
Ain't no denying it, when the romance is good...
... the riding is good.
At the other end of the spectrum, was a certain lawyer. He also drove all the way down.
Sat in his car.
Texted us, Eff this rain!
I rang him.
Get out here.
No.
Don't be a baby.
I hate the rain, I'm going home.
Ok... call the sitter, have her read you a story and bring chicken soup for your pitiful soul.
Who doesn't want to ride 90 miles in the rain with the fastest cats in San Diego?
Which brings me to the fruit basket...
... my fruit basket got pretty soggy.
Time to dry off, and kindle up some of my own love watts.
