Tuesday Am Sprints



So I have been leading sprint workouts in Philadelphia for five if not six years now. During DST, we meet on Resevoir Road between Strawberry and Mt Pleasant Mansions, around 6:40am every Tuesday. It is a two mile, low traffic course, that used to see more prostitutes, used condoms, and weird guys coming out of the woods, or washing their cars for 45 mins, but now, it's more home to bike riders and walkers. Thankfully.
Today, we sprinted in the rain. Drizzle started on lap 3 and by lap 4 we had rain drops. Dmitri showed up a couple laps in and proceeded to put the hurt down from both his lnog pulls and the sprint he can pull out of nowehere. This, after he and I rode 4h15 on Saturday, and him winning the sprint in his race on Sunday. He's incredible. Now, I just need him on my team.
I wasn't feeling super fresh and stayd away from the sprints, mostly working on hard pulls. Next week, right?
