thoughts of a 29er....

had a great ride today at the ridgeland trails. meet up with wesson and rode just about 2hrs...mostly chill pace but threw in some fun at the very end...thanks hommie, it was fun! the trails are in great shape...every ride has new signs of improvement! great cycling community up in there!

the workouts this week have been on point. i ended up taking monday off...it was the first day off in over 16days! I started right where i left off...Tuesday was a nice 6 mile trail run with some strength work too; Wednesday i got a hard core leg strength workout in the gym and then went straight on the bike for a nice ride...in the long run i think the ride really paid off in reducing the post workout soreness; Thursday was another strength/core workout with only a 20 min cardio session; Friday...solid mtb ride! at this point, i'm looking forward to the ride on sunday...saturday looks like it's going to be WET all day so i'll be working out inside...sunday will be a long road ride...cant wait!

so....for the title...for some reason i have been thinking about racing a hardtail 29er...i think it might be a good fit for the type of trails around here. lots of options of makes and models out there...
