Out on the SS 29er today for one last training effort level ride before racing next weekend. Set the pump down to a 55% reduction at 8:21 in hopes of being out by 09:30. I got started a little late, but was finally rolling out of the Wellness Center parking lot by 09:41. (Actually, not the WC parking lot as their sprint tri was going on. Parked at the business right near by).
Weather was raining on and off during the day, so I just hit the double track at the local CHHS trail system I usually train on. Included some of the hill repeat course, and did two big loops of the combo route with a trip back at the car at the 2 hour mark for water and food refill.
Kept the normal fueling and hydration technique and everything ran smooth. 2 PowerBar Gels per hour, and approx 16oz of H2O.

On the way back to the car after at the end of my ride, I put my basal rate back to normal. 30 minutes later I was back at the hybrid testing at a 127.
Today was one of the best I have felt on a bike in what seems like a long time. I am REALLY looking forward to The Farm this weekend. I need just to take it easy this week, don't touch any door handles, and get some good nights rest.
I did lower my basal rate to the traditional 20% reduction for 6 hours when I went to bed.
