Tuesday AM Sprints

Today was a great workout. It was only the second Tuesday that we have done these this year but already we had nine riders show up. Some new faces, some returning riders, and riders with varying fitness and handling skills, but all with the same ultimate goal: Get in shape, make improvements, and become a better rider.
I am excited to have joined the Philadelphia Ciclismo team for 2009 as I am making great new friends to ride with and hopefully hang out with in normal clothes at some point too.
After todays ride I am experiencing something new, fatigued forearms. I've had this happen after really hard training blocks in the past, but not after just two hard rides. Holy cow. Just sitting here my legs and arms are letting me know today was a tough workout.
I am excited to race with Dan and Csuy this year, as both have complementary characteristics with me and we should be able to have some good results together. With Craig hanging tight for the crit sprints, we should have all of our bases covered.
