This morning I was supposed to join my club on a ride to Crystal Lake, but I didn't feel like riding with the club today (although I'm sure that if I'd gone, I'd have enjoyed it). So I slept in.
Since I was on a lazy streak, I thought I may as well be on a greedy streak too. So I got out of bed and gobbled down half a bag of sour cream and onion chips. Needless to say soon after I got grossed out by the fat and the residue onion taste in my mouth. So I used trustworthy Listerine which killed the onion taste and burnt my mouth in the process.
Since I was loaded with carbs, I did the impossible today - I cycled 10 laps around Rose Bowl. I needed to get rid of the crap from my body, as well, I wanted to see how long I'd take to do 10 laps. Time 106min, or 17.5mph...I hope to join the peloton ride someday before I leave California. They do 10 laps in 60min, but I could use drafting which reduces energy expenditure by 30%. Hence my time would be 74min. If my calculation serves me correctly, this means that I could keep up with the pack for 2 laps before being dropped mercilessly.
On another side note, I just received a call from my mum's cell. I thought it was my mum calling, but it was my little brother (6 years old) on the phone, he decided to talk to me, found my number and dialed it - I'm smitten.
