I decided to race bikes after winning a charity ride of 15kms. It was a tough event. I increased the pace on a medium sized hill and went solo to the victory. Now I am determined to do some racing. My Trek bike performed perfectly, although I instructed the mechanic at Performance to put 130 psi in my tires and when I checked there was only 118 psi.
I think I will be good because I am athletic from several years of softball. I prefer cycling as it's an individual sport and I'm kind of a one man wolf pack.
I hired a trainer, he is smart and tells me how to train. He is Albanian, but simply goes by "Larry". He said my power numbers are looking good and several wins should come my way. I recently got some compression calf guards as Larry said all the European pros wear these to aid in recovery. I also got a European style track suit, it's looks good and is comfortable to wear after my rides.
I hope to get noticed and want to race for a pro team. This is my journey.
