long ride interrupted.

new position felt fine except that it felt like I was sitting on a metal rod. Sort of like my seat was tilted up and my left sit bone was taking most of the pressure. Tried dropping the nose and it felt like I was slipping off. I'll mess with it tomorrow if I can't get in to see the fitter.

I know it'll take a bit of tweaking to get completely dialed in but it's a pain in the ass, literally and figuratively. It's not like we've got a lot of time to be messing around.

Now I've got hours on the bike to make up tomorrow. Awesome.

First ride on the new fit.  Seemed to be hitting my power numbers easier while using a smaller gear.  HR was also lower than last time I did a similar workout. 

 

Didn't feel like being in the pool, didn't have a plan and it showed.

 

REV3 Maryland in October, hmmmmmm.
