My theory is, you got your quota of bad stuff done for a while! Congrats on surviving it and coming out laughing a little.

"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks

You survived your "training" ride with humor! The century will be a piece of cake.

Welcome to TE. Glad you're OK!! What a horrible, terrible, no-good, very bad day!
Tomorrow HAS to be better.
Glad to have you around. Good luck with your TNT training and experience. I did a marathon with them a few years ago, and it was the most fun I've ever had training and racing. Which ride are you doing?

Hey ladies!
Thanks for the support!
Today was not much better, so I decided it was in my best interest to stay on my feet instead of two wheels. At least I got my tire fixed!
I am doing America's Most Beautiful Ride in Tahoe on June 3rd. I did a tri with TNT 5 years ago and had a great experience. I needed some structure and some motivation, so here I am again :-)

Good for you and kudos! I too have been away from biking for about 5 years but I am BACK and this time, I plan on staying for awhile.
Let us know how your next ride turns out. Hopefully it will be a lot less painful for you.
