Repaving is done. Feels nice.

They need to stripe it but shouldn't be a problem for Sunday.

Uhhh... no paint may very well pave the way for some *unusually* daffy lines. Be ready for some wild serpentine patterns, sprinkled with blood --cyclist and pedestrian. And speaking of patterns, I wonder what inventive cone arrangement will be on display...
I meant that it shouldn't be a problem for them to get it striped by then but your point is well taken. Eric M and I were discussing the same thing this morning as we rode through there. I said it could get ugly and he said not to worry cause they would probably put up cones...... Yikes.
niiice and smooth indeed
thanks to Eric for hanging out on my wheel and pushing me. 30 minutes at 300 with a wee bit of barf-in-my-mouth at the end :)

so since we were posting power numbers before and I was curious being told this was very good at derivation. Already owning a kurt kinetic road machine, I invested a mere 10bucks into a monthly subscription of trainerroad.com.
I tested an hour 'a bloque'. avg was 268.8 for an hour, that gives me 4.09 watt/kg. Not really something to brag about but it's encouraging for when the terrain gets hilly, which is what I'm targeting.
"a bloc"
love it :)
haha oups. yea 'a bloc' :P
the legs are gonna hurt tomorrow! forget that, they're hurting as I type this.
Going to check out this amazing new pavement today after work. Shooting for 4:15. Would like to stick around for a couple hours so if you want to come a bit later that's cool with me.
If all goes well I'll be there 5:30-6ish for a bit. Was chilly last night and seemed worse this morning. I thought I was done with wearing winter bibs... :(
Im prob gonna join u mike. more around 4pm than latter...wanna enjoy this sunshine. i dont know what pace you're looking at but I won't be going too fast.
i'll be in prospect around 4:15 for a 2 hour workout - doing a TTT with barouh - come join

Nice to ride with you yesterday.
Mancuso is BACK!
Ha, yeah dude, slower than the slow I was, but I'll get back into it soon enough. 4 month hiatus is tough...
going to PP at round 430pm for some improvisational riding if anyone wants to join.
If the weather holds ill be in there from 730ish
oh man, just broke a spoke! this is really messed up cause its one of the spokes that was replaced when my wheel was rebuilt with a new rim at ride brooklyn...womp womp.
Aly your too fat
