More Lake Mac Snow

Jumped out of work early today and took a sunset cyclocross ride around the lake. Temps were in the 50's and a chinook wind started blowing on lap 3. Worked on technical skills again. Focused on looking to where I wanted to go instead of zoning out on what was going on two feet in front of me. It's such a simple thing, but for whatever reason it's not part of my muscle memory.

Also stopped by the Longmont Athletic Club and got my membership set up. It's great to have our sponsors step up and provide the type of support needed to help us become better. Plan is to hit the weight room 2x a week starting next week.

I've seen people try to change,
And I know it isn't easy,
But nothin' worth the time never really is.

Into the Wind

Against my better judgement, I went out into the cold, wind, and snow and rode my cross bike around the lake. It was hard-packed and choppy from all of the people walking on the path. It reminded me of KCCX. I worked harder than I wanted to, but the only way to get better riding in the snow is riding in the snow.
