As if the very tough, muddy course at Big Bear wasn’t enough of a challenge I though I would get in a 35 mile recovery ride yesterday in 100 degree heat and about 90% humidity. I lost about 5 pounds on that ride but I am sorry to say that it was water loss instead of the fat that I need to lose.
After the effort I put in at Big Bear my legs needed a nice easy ride to work out the lactic acid and loosen up a little bit.
