Another day on the bike

It has been six years since I last pinned a number on a jersey.  This year will see a return to the racing scene although not like it used to be. I remember the days when we would be on the road going somewhere every weekend March thru early September. Wilkes-Barre, Somerset,Pa to Freehold NJ we were there.  A lot of good memories from those days but also looking forward to making new ones in the months to come. With the formation of the NAG/KVC team there is a renewed passion for getting back on the bike and turning a pedal in anger.  Trying to get myself back in shape has been fun also. Watching the weight on the scale drop everytime you step on it to having clothes that fit a little looser is always a good thing and keeps ones motivation going. I have never ridden the trainer as much as this winter and it still isn't enjoyable as outside but it gets the job done. Once the time changes and we can get out on the road Tuesday and Thursday nite rides on a  regular basis all that indoor pedaling will be a benefit I hope. The cycling season starts the first weekend of March with several training races throughout the region to get everyone tuned up and ready to go. Not having raced in so long I am not sure what to expect from the body and hopefully all the training time and miles will lead me in the right direction.
