Next Up - Cowbell Challenge 12Hour
The Cowbell is a fun little race just outside of Charlotte, NC. The course has changed over the last couple of years since the construction of the new white water center began, but it always fun and always hot! Previous years the race has been run from 9AM to 9PM during the longest day of the year (or as close as possible), so racers did not need lights. For some reason they organizers have moved the start back to 10AM, so now I get to break out the Light & Motions.
I won this one last year and took second the year before, so I’m hoping for a similar result. My training has been solid with a lot of hours and high-end work and along with my new Wobble Naught fit & improved pedal stroke (more on that tomorrow) I expect another good result.
The heat is always the biggest issue and with no support crew I’ll have to be vigilant about hydration and minimizing the effects. Too bad I don’t have one of these solar powered a/c tents from Wingnut Gear…yet
