I got on my bike today anxious to see the difference after it was serviced. Unbelievable! I did not realize the difference a new chain, a new cassette and new tires plus totally oiled and cleaned, could make. Like a new bike. Easy to shift gears and a nice smooth ride. If I had Lance Armstrong's leg's and heart muscle, than that would be something. As I say to my golf friends, new clubs will help a little but it is still up to you to put the ball in the hole. Same with bike riding. It is definitely easier to peddle, but I still have to do the work.
With a day off yesterday, I was a little sluggish today. I think the core strength exercise I did two days ago, strained my back a little. It is stiff and a little painful. I rode early to beat a very strong wind. It was cool but only wanted to do a short ride to get back into the swing of things. I am going to do some more exercises when I finish with the blog. Weather is supposed to be warm the next several days so I am going to try and put some long rides back to back.
