Got my mini time trial in on my favourite route with the intention of comparing my fitness to last year. As mentioned I am about 7lbs heavier right now so my climbing is still suffering quite a bit. Hopefully in a month or so the climbing will improve. The weather was nice but had a head wind 3/4 of the ride which was a bit demoralizing. I had set a target in mind but wasn't able to reach it with the wind (and fitness I am sure). The good news is I did the route 27 minutes faster than this time last year (a little bit more than 100km). I must have been pretty slow last year because I sure don't feel very fast right now.

The trails are pretty much dry now so I hope to put the Asylum through it's first real trail test this weekend. Depends on how much rain we get.
