We're kicking off the 2024 Secret Santa! Exchange gifts with other monkeys - from beer and snacks, to bike gear, to custom machined holiday decorations and tools by our more talented members, there's something for everyone.
Why Flag? It's barely two hours north of Phoenix, and like 10 hours from Denver. I'd think staying somewhere closer to "halfway" (not that there's a lot of anything in that regard) would make more sense. But no?
Track opens at 9:30am. Hotel in Flag is $55; in Phoenix is $255. I'll get up at 6:30am, eat breakfast, then drive the 2hrs to Phoenix. Same for driving back on Sunday. Finish the race, help pack up, grab an early dinner in PHX, then drive to Flag for the night. We'll save $400+ and only add 2hrs drive to the day - we do that here as it is.
told the wife i'd do yoga with her a few times a week to try to stretch out my achy bits. have done so twice this week. also trying to get a bit more sleep. in bed before 12:30 so far. should probably also drink less, but i'll take two outta three for now.
I keep a few sets of bibs to layer under trail shorts or pants. This set have not been worn in a year, were primed for an all day effort. Need to toss out two sets from the gear totes, chamois is pulled away, stacked under one cheek and not worth much unless I take up pole dancing.
