Warmth!

We finally are seeing decent weather in West Michigan and it feels great, today was my first day without tights, I almost forgot how nice it feels to not have to bundle up.  With the warmer weather comes a transition from mindless long miles as I attempt to hone my form a little.  I am not big on the cyclist training bible type of plans but this year am adding some structure to my rides in hopes that it gives me the extra oomph I felt I was missing in the past.  With the warm weather also comes rumors of snow free trails, on this afternoons ride I stopped to chat with one of the local elite racers and got the official word that Yankee Springs is open for riding and fast!  Looks like tomorrow might be my first time riding singletrack since mid January and the first time my tires touch dirt since Iceman.   Two weeks until the season kickoff at Yankee better learn how to handle something wider than 25c again.
