Race and ride schedules are starting to come out. So far I am looking at the following 3 events for the spring
April 7th- XC Race- Bunny Hopbrook at Middlebury CT
April 22nd- XC Race- Winding Trails at Farmington CT
June 10- Century Ride- Tour De Cure New Haven CT
I'll be racing CAT3 for XC races hoping to be at mid pack or better. Winding Trails is where I finished 6 out of 11 in the First Timer category last year. Knowing a bit about the terrain and some of the mistakes I made I hope to improve over last year. I also have a more structured plan with more volume and a purposeful base period.
Tour De Cure is a charity road ride for diabetes. There seems to be a lot of these fully supported non-competitive charity rides around and the dates works well for me. This will be my first century. I'll have a full 7 weeks between the last XC race and this century. Plenty of time to shift gears and prepare for lots of road miles.
OK bruthas, lets see your 2012 planned events!!
