Pimple My Ride

Last night I said I would be heading out for some night riding base miles tonight if I could stay motivated. Well a morning filled with rain and the prospect of 2 hours on wet crushed lime stone was not motivating in the least. So outdoor ride aborted, indoor ride conceived. Plan: After a 10 minute warm up, keep HR in zone 2 until 1000 kcal hit. Not a big deal, except as soon as my ass hit the SodoMizer1000™ (also known as my Selle Italia Flight Gel saddle on my trainer) I knew there was an issue. Left cheek was sporting a pimple. Nice. So after some wiggling around on the saddle I found a good spot and cranked out 1:25.

I read today that the typical American will eat 3000 calories & 230 grams of fat in a Thanksgiving Day meal. I eat about 2700 calories all day (and net less) and I average just less that 60g of fat per day. Hmmmm. I know I will eat far less than that in a Thanksgiving meal, BUT I'm still gonna try to roll a turkey day ride and attempt to burn as close to 3K as I can. Then come home, cook up the bird and eat without the slightest hint of guilt. I think nothing says "Thanks" like sacrificing some calories and miles to the Ride Gods.

Things that scare me: multiple people finding my blog with the Googled words "spandex crotch shot", "big teets at school" and the scariest of all "Jason Mahokey". Dear God, teets and crotch shots I can see, but who the F Googles ME?? Oh well. I can almost see the disappointment when they see THIS is what I've become. There are worse things, right? Right? RIGHT????
