I'm TIRED

and I need a rest from the bike. I've been riding a lot in prep for the Greensfelder race and stuff at work is coming to a boil. I do know that I'm taking at least a week off of the bike after Saturday's race. My legs bruised and beaten and my body needs some recovery time. When I took my two weeks off at the beginning of August (for the Europe trip) I thought I'd really get some rest for my body. Truth is we walked a great deal everyday in Europe, so much so, I actually lost weight on the trip. Lately I feel like my time on the bike has been mandatory in order to prepare for races. I don't like that and therefore, I'm taking a break. Later.
