.....this weekend. It's shaping up to be an interesting weekend.
It starts off tame enough, get in a little pre-ride Sat. to make sure my gearing is dialed. Sat. night, the mrs. has a little gig to go to with me in tow, hopefully not too late, but I promised not to be a party pooper so I'm in it until the end.
Sunday morning I get to work the tech zone for the KCCC tri at Shawne-Mission Park. I have to be there at 5am to set up and they promised me I could get out of there as soon as the bike leg is complete(or sooner).
It should give me plenty of time to load up the van and get myself out to Landahl for the days festivities. Not exactly how I would have laid out a weekend pre-race, but at least it will keep me busy and not thinking about what lies ahead of me.
...Gearing you say? After the last few races, I ordered up a 19 cog from Endless Bikes to make things a little easier when things turn vertical, especially later in the race. After talking to some local gear heads about the course, they assure me that my 34x18 will be what I need to stick with.
Temps. look to be dropping for race day. Lets just hope the rain holds off or we'll have a repeat of conditions from last years KC Cup at Swope. If so, a tire change will be in order for sure.
