Last Race For A While

Well the end is almost here,last bike race for a while.Don't plan on racing much next year.I have to much on the go at home and at work.I have been training steady,riding the jogging as much as i can.This is the first race this year that i managed to train steady for.I feel pretty good the last couple of weeks.I think i am just about at 40,000m of painful training climbs.I haven't had my GPS the last couple of weeks because i sent it back for a new one( software )but before that i was at 38,000 m over the last few months .Bike has been working great,i picked up a new scalpel 1 for the race and have been riding it for a little over a month ( thanks Olympia ),all i want to do before the race is change the tires. Flights are booked,hotels are booked,transportation is booked.I can't believe i am going to be climbing up the sides volcanoes and riding threw rain forests.This race is going to be the toughest race i have ever done,they say every year 40% of the racers don't finish.The heat,humidity,mud,steep looooong climbs,getting up at 4:30 0r 5:00 every morning and racing every day with hardly no sleep because you sweated all night and oh i just about forgot having ride on bumpy railway tracks for km's and km's.I think if i finish in one piece a good drunk will be the order of the day.
