Yesterday I finally did something about the bike discomfort I’ve been experiencing for two years. I bought a new saddle. I also had an expert (Zane at Jack & Adams) adjust the bike to me, not the other way around. It’s amazing how much difference a few centimeters can make! My aerobars were too low and my old saddle was too far back. No wonder I wasn’t able to balance in the aero position and couldn’t ride more than 10 miles or so in comfort.
I had hoped to get out to the veloway this morning for a test ride, but I woke up with allergies and congestion so I took a rest day. Or rather, a rest day was forced upon me. I should have used my netti pot after swimming on Thursday and Friday, and I should have put in eardrops of vinegar and alcohol. Next time!
Training log: Friday – 500 meters of open water swimming at Lake Pflugerville. Saturday – rest day.
Motivation log: Friday – Finally did something about discomfort on the bike. Saturday – Started reading “Talent Is Overrated.”
