Yeee-haw!!! I committed my first TT last night!

I'm so thankful for the tips and encouragement you all gave me. I stayed safe, peddled smart and really enjoyed the challenge.

I rode my custom fit 9 year old Lemond, no arrow bars or fancy helmet. I did 12.5 mi in 37:39. I think that is just under 20mph? Having never ridden the course and only got a 10 min to warm-up (husband drove way to slow getting there) I learned that it would have helped to know different distance points and hills on the course. At one point I thought I was about 1 mi from the finish and I was actually about 4 mi. mentally it took something out of me.

My legs aren't sore today but, I'm sure I should get out and ride a bit? What would you recommend?

There is another TT in 2 weeks that I will do. Next Saturday I am going to watch my first race in Grand Rapids, MI. Is there anything I should pay particular attention to at the race?

Any advice always welcome!
