Ride Description:                                                            

I was just a little frustrated for not staying sharply focused on the effort throughout the BBC 31 course. I had good focus to keep the intensity up until about midway I noticed that my mind was drifting off on various senseless topics. I tried reeling my mind back into the effort and it would drift off again. I finished a minute over my PR for the course. Frustrating

For the most part my injuries and scrapes from last weekend seem to be healing well. I would not say that I am at 100% with a slight tenderness to my left knee, hip, elbow and shoulder. I feel very fortunate though to be healing up at a good rate.

Good to see that Gary and Mike P. were out and I saw Tim and Mike Q.'s cars at the lot. So it appears that friends were out for a ride despite how bad the weather folk tried to make it sound. It was a very nice day despite how poor they predict the weather.
