First Race in Four Years
May 3, 2004
I just registered for my first bike race in four years. It’s this Saturday afternoon in Los Gatos, kicking off at 4:10 pm.
But I’m still hesitant due to my unknown fitness level, so I thought I’d post my plans online. Now other people know about the race and I have to do it (well, that plus my Dutch heritage won’t let me waste the $43 I paid to enter—what happened to entry fees while I was gone? Yikes.)
Wish me luck!
