Post Endurance Race Recovery Fuel
There are hundreds of products out there that claim to be the best recovery drink after such a physically demanding event. They spend millions to have some celebrity athlete push their goods but in the end do we really know if these things work? At Cycling Dumb and Team Bi-atch we use what has worked for drunk fraternity boys for years. The keg stand!! So get out there, ride 100 miles off road, have your buddies spin you up-side-down and chug away. It will taste great and rehydrate you but more importantly you will quickly not feel that pain anymore. Ride hard, be kind and remember its just bike racn'!!!

Top Secret Wilderness 101 training
1. Sleep 9+ hours while still needing to hit the snooze bar 3 times, drink lots of coffee, nap #1, blog, more coffee, nap #2
2. Silly fix gear intervals, like 30seconds on 3 times by 5 blah, blah, blah. You know some conventional anal "training" crap. But we Bi-acth's hate convention so...
3. After said intervals find some hills that you can really get rolling down on your fixie and practice your mad cool power slide skills action. The goal 270-300 degrees with out crashing in multiple directions. Ahh yeh!!! How will this help in the 101? It probably won't but it will hopefully impress the fixie riding hipster girly's!!! And why do we race, dah, meeting mad cool hipster girly's. Right?
So get out their fan!! Ride hard and smile.
*no stinking brakes are allowed on your fixie

Warning
Next Sat., the 19th of July, I am predicting a colossal explosion at approximately 12 PM. I predict the explosion shall be heard around the world. Don't be alarmed.
In the spirit of the Cycle-Dumb trained athlete, I signed up for the singlespeed race (8 AM) and the pro race (11 AM) at mt bike nationals. All year I've been planning on doing the SS race, and I shan't be deterred by such a silly thing as scheduling. harumph!
Rumor has it the SS race = 4 laps, and the pro race = TBD. Maybe 5? I hope I finish the SS race in time to stuff some Pringels and maybe some Nutter Butters down my gullet before the craziness of the pro race. gunnar and Goose both race at 8 AM on Sat., so send some good vibes towards Vermont next weekend. Please.
Then, Team Bi-Atch (we all subscribe to the CD training program) will pile in the car and drive down to Fairmont, WV to race on Sunday. Can't miss one of those WVMBAs, you know.
