Almanzo 100.
got up early and drove down to the race in spring Valley. I was a little worried about getting there on time.. but the registration was so simple, it felt like we were twiddling our thumbs waiting for the start.
What a gorgeous day. Scenic route. A lot of hills. Steep hills. I am glad I had the MB instead of the CX. Not sure I could have handled the CX on the downhills and would have run out of gears on the ups.
2nd big ride in a row where I have had cramping issues. I need to figure this out. I rode the last 50 miles with cramps in my legs. I tried everything I know... It wasn't until Andrei gave me some of his eCaps, instead of mine, that I started to feel good. With the cramping, we had a lot of idle time. Strava shows moving time of 7:45
