My good friend Noah came out to a race to take a few shots at a local crit. It was exciting for me, since the race was local and friends/family were there to watch.

The morning I woke up feeling miserable, (probably from a calorie deficit) but it turned out that sitting in the pack didn’t feel much different than attacking. It’s motivating to receive Kudos from my peers re: aggressiveness.

The following day I caught a ride with Noah to Port Alberni. This would be the 2nd time that I biked to Victoria from there in as many years. It’s about a 215km route on severely undulating terrain. The first time I was less fit so felt the need to eat at almost every chance. This time I rode with a light meal for the first 70km and ate a medium lunch with a final dinner 70km from home. (Basically I managed the route with the same food I would normally eat in a day without traning) Previously, I avoided the Mallahat, (A very hilly section) because I was cracked 70km from home and took the easy route. This time, I was prepared from a winter of consistent high volume training sessions. (5 four day 20 hour training camps)

I came across this frame for a good price. It made sense to build a singlespeed because I already had track wheels lying around and it was difficult to find era-appropriate parts. The gearing is 42-16 which is good enough for in town use.
