Well it's 13 days until the state titles road race and I am stuck inside with an apocalyptic dose of manflu! It's time to be positive:
- I will be ultrafresh and well rested.
- I have lost 2kg in three days.
- I have watched a heap of cycling videos online and am feeling very motivated.
Next Sunday is the Charles Coin Memorial race at Mulgowie, which will serve as an excellent lead up race for the state titles. I have actually elected to race Elite B instead of Masters B (I have a dual licence, one of the few advantages of being a crusty, old dude). The Elite B race is a bit longer (108 km vs 90 km) and it starts at 9 am (not 1 pm like the Masters B race). I just think it will serve my purposes a little better. Mark Brady (old friend and Queensland Masters A legend) tells me that Elite B is maybe only a little faster than Masters B anyway (and certainly nowhere near as fast as Masters A). Hopefully, health permitting, it should be a good race for me.
