Hey there, fellow travelers and cycling enthusiasts! I’m currently buzzing with excitement (and a little bit of caffeine) as I embark on a road trip to Billings, armed with my favorite coffee and scones from City Brew. The car’s packed, the playlists are ready, and my spirit is high.
Yesterday, I immersed myself in the serene beauty of Pattee Canyon. Skiing there for over two hours at a heart-pumping average rate of 142 bpm was exhilarating! I completed five laps around my favorite 3.15-mile loop (check out the map here for a scenic detour). There’s this one hill that really gets my heart racing, maxing out at 163 bpm. It’s like a dance with nature, where every stride and glide felt like a moderate race training session.
Today, however, my legs are telling a different story. They’re a bit on the weaker side, perhaps whispering (or rather, shouting) for some rest. But hey, it’s a transition period, and this past week has been phenomenal training-wise. I’ve practically checked off every box in my training regimen!
So, here I am, ready to hit the road again. Billings, here I come, with my trusty Sansa player loaded with all my beloved cycling podcasts like Fredcast and The Spokesman. A little sneak peek at the webcams at the passes has only fueled my excitement more.
Stay tuned for more updates from the road, and let’s see what adventures await!
