Look i know i said "tomorrow" but really, what is tomorrow? Those kinds of things are hard concepts to nail down, so rather than get bogged down in metaphysics, let's just agree that today is tomorrow. Today is also today, so once i've covered the today that is tomorrow, i'll have to make another post for the today that is today.
So yay 2 posts in one day!
Monday was pretty much a write off, i don't know if it was the stress of my defeat at the hands of the kittens or something more sinister (is there anything more sinister than being defeated by kittens?) but i simply didn't have the energy required to do much of anything at all. After doing basically nothing, i ended up falling asleep around 3 in the afternoon, and not waking up for 14.5 hours.

That precluded riding before work, so after a long and productive day i eventually hopped on the bike at 6:40pm. This would have been just fine if it weren't for the fact that a certain someone had forgotten to charge their headlight. So 5 repeats of Gyndier instead became 1 (although it went quite well, thanks for asking) and headed for the start of a 20km TT loop i had found on Strava. Along the way a mate passed in his car, which can only lead to motorpacing. Thanks to other traffic getting in the way it didn't last long, but topping out at 55kmh was fun. Not ideal just before starting a 35 minute flat out effort, but fun anyway.
The loop went ok, not great, but ok. Nearly 2 minutes faster than the previous KOM (and only other person to have ridden it) for an average of 35.2kmh. Once my legs come back to me and i pop on the aerobars, i think 40kmh should be a reasonable goal.
Sadly i now have to leave the house, so Part 2 of today/tomorrow will have to wait until tonight. No guarantees on whether my philosophical interpretation of tonight matches anyone else's.
Fair Winds,
