Mount Mitchell Update

Well, its only 40 hours until the start of MM. Today was supposed to be a short easy ride with just some slow miles to ease the legs. I joined my group at 8:30 to get the ride in. About 15 miles in, it started to sprinkle. I know I should have taken the old bike to make sure I had a nice clean bike to ride on Monday morning. But I didn't think so I ended up sprinting back home to get out of the deluge. After spending an hour drying, wiping and re-lubing, I finally got it all done. So now its all in the bank as they say. Monday will be an EPIC day no matter what happens. Hope to get a post back on here Monday night or Tuesday that has a positive twist to it. This week has been nerve racking. I tried to taper my training which always makes me edgy. I spent the first part of the week in a sales meeting which also makes me edgy. Now I just want to ride the ride and let the Cycling Gods handle the outcome. Wish me luck......
