2010 to 2011 Blog Posts - Virtual Tours

Over the past two years of having this Blog and fueled by my personal passion for cycling, I have posted blogs and have let people know where to ride on Sunshine Coast. Certainly the two elements has blurred a bit.

My blog has become many things including my training diary, my vessel to share my experiences with the world, promote the Sunshine Coast and to share in other cycling stuff that I find personally interesting.

My Homepage has my posts over the 2010 - 2012 years. When training for certain events, you get bored of analyzing data every which way, so in 2010 I started a virtual tour across Canada with the my cumulative training distance over the years and posted on Google Maps. It started out innocently enough with a question pondering if I virtually rode across Canada where would I be and what towns would I visit.

Its Granfondo training season!

The Kelowna Granfondo is only a couple of weeks away and I've just started to ride some big rides.  Not that I haven't been riding but only putting in smaller, faster rides.  The Tuesday nights rides tend to be a wicked workout and some of the riders are having a problem keeping up (mostly me).  Today, I rode to Madeira Park (Pender Harbour) and ended up bonking about 110km.  When I bonk its a feeling that almost makes me cry or at least whimper.  Its mind over matter and it takes every personality trait to keep me from stopping and hitchhiking home.

I gotta learn to eat more and more often....

Next week is my 200km ride and I better learn quickly!!!!!!
