all spun up in the morning

I’m feeling hyped up today. Finally, I’ve managed to move my butt out of bed to spin in the morning. I set my alarm at 4:45am, 5am and 5:30am. In the end I only managed to get myself out of bed at 5:15am. I just had to snooze it a few times before the determination kicked in to propel me out of bed.

Somehow getting the motivation to gain inertia is very uplifting. I must keep up with this. My goal is to gain enough biking fitness to complete A Famosa well.

I’ve dropped the price of my bike further, in hope that someone would pick it up and make good use to it. it’s a good bike and I sure would miss riding it.. however, I do agree with the fact that I don’t have much use of it if I start training on neon more. Moreover, it’s more important that I get training wheels for neon now so that I’ll start riding it more. At the end of the day, that’s the bike I’ll race with, so it only makes sense that I train with it.

There’ll be a guy viewing it tonight. I’ll set it up on the trainer for him. With the cheap price I’m letting it go at, I’ll not change the stem for the buyer. He has to find his own stem and change it to the length he’ll be comfortable with.

I’ve got 2 options for 650c wheels – ambrioso and xero lite. I’ve emailed tbb to find out when their stock is coming in but no reply as yet. Well if they don’t get back to me, I’ll go for ambrioso. Maybe small time purchases like mine not worth the time of tbb..unlike ben who really takes effort to source the wheelset for me and reply my email promptly.

If there’s anything I need to get, the first place I’ll ask has to be C2C. it’s still my all-time favourite bike shop. Thumbs up for Ben!

I am sooooo looking forward to the long week of break coming my way. counting down now.. 5 more days then off to Segamat we go.

Somehow having that in mind makes going through the week of work a lot more bearable..because the break is oh-so-near!
