Recovery is good...

Man, what a difference a couple of recovery days can make. We had 2 full days of rain and I took some time off the bike to stretch, eat, sleep and recover. I rode for 2.5 hours today before work and I felt very good. The weather is warming up and the sun is shining. It's hard NOT to ride when the weather is perfect, although we all know the benefits of rest, I have a hard time laying off the rides. Coming up this Sunday is the first race of the season, the Yankee Springs Time Trial.
