A Sunday in Hell? Not for me!

I had quite a nice little Sunday today. Got up had breakfast with my daughter, and watched Cancellara trounce the field in Paris-Roubaix. Then I went out to the local Metro Park and cooked out 50 miles of my own. Felt GREAT. Maybe not quite the epic cobbles of Roubaix, but it was fun - Plus, I feel like I'm finally getting back on track. Feeling solid on the bike, with some strength in the legs. Maybe all the time spent on the rollers is starting to pay off... 

The LOOK was running good and the weather was perfect - arm warmers and knee warmers were the only order for the day.  

Great Day.

Bart Wellens - Stop Motion Photography of Dismount

This is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time. It's almost a frame by frame photo sequence of Bart Wellens coming into a set of barriers at the Roubaix World Cup last Sunday. Look at how high his bike goes over the barriers... He must have been really moving! Here's the link to the article on Cyclocross Magazine. Bart Wellens dismount.
