Seo Festival

Photos by yamahiro Blue skies, a little wind and a perfect day for racing. Perfect for those who won that is. For some reason, I chose the 2nd hardest race of the day. 30km, 20 laps, 20 little hills on that Shimofusa (un)Friendly Park. I’d been negatively programming my mind that I’d only last 20km […]

Sekiyado Castle

Did my usual 20km each way castle run. Beautiful blue sky as I set out but dark clouds coming in on the way back. Hope it’s not raining for tomorrow’s Seo Festival. Averaged 30kph up the river and dawdled back home with a little sprint at the end. Going to the gym for a very […]

Wednesday Night Training

Probably the last hard ride before the Seo Festival. Too cold, my toes are still frost bitten. Too hard. 14 riders,  47km. Didn’t win any sprints, a few 3rds and a few 4ths and a lot of tail ends.  kimochi warui… ＡＰＥＸ：銀さん、ツーとも、Ａビルさん、赤タマさん、部●長さん。 GSﾐﾗﾉ：いのさん、Mimizoさん ﾁｸﾘﾋﾃﾞ：つっつる先生、クゥちゃん フォルツァ：おーやんさん オッティモ：ロボさん セマスＲ：ピーター先生、

Tokyo Marathon Training #1

Had the day off today and first job was to reposition the outdoor dog pen. Dismantled in it half, cleared the ground, concrete blocks down, steel pipe flat rails to hold the floor and away I went. Trying to keep the dogs further away from the front of the house in the hope that it […]

Wednesday Night Training 2009 11 19

Didn’t feel like riding tonight at all. 3 layers up top, a skull cap, neck warmer, shoe covers etc… very cold. Just had a hot shower and my feet still feel frozen solid. 7 riders tonight. The first sprint is always the easiest for me as I don’t think the others want to try and […]

Tuesday Night Training 2008 11 18

Just got home. Was a bit cold but worse than that a strong head wind on our sprint point. I just took it easy waiting till the last lap and then I got stuck at a traffic signal as the police were passing. Therefor getting dropped and having no chance of finishing strongly. Just as […]

Sunday Morning Training

Woke up at  six thirty and it was cloudy. Left at seven and it was sprinkling. Arrived at seven thirty and it was raining. 4 people there to hear it had been canceled. (as expected). At least I got in 26km at a moderate to fast pace and home for a shower. Then took the […]

Thursday Night Training 2009 11 13

There were about 8 riders tonight. Next week the Thursday night training may turn into Wednesday nights. Tuesday & Wednesday back to back is going to be hard but I get to sleep in a bit on Thursday nights. Didn’t plan on going hard tonight but found myself leading a sprint and dead heated for […]
