Tapering Down

On July 4th, I'm going to be riding the Tour of Payne. I'll almost certainly ride the 100k course, but I might go for the 100 miler, if I make good enough time up to the decision point at Cushing, OK, and feel strong enough to do the extra 38 miles.

Having ridden a 100k on Monday, I'm taking it a bit easier on my riding for the rest of the week. I did a bit over 20 miles, Tuesday, took Wednesday off, and only did 20 miles today. Weather permitting, I plan to do fast, flat, 20-milers on Friday and Saturday, with an easy recovery pace ride on Sunday. If I ride on Monday, it'll be less than 20 miles, and If I ride on Tuesday, I'll do less than 10.
