33 Hours Later...

Last week, I endured the longest week on the bike. It was fun. Everyday was very eventful. Whether it meant exploring new roads, occasionally managing to get myself lost, or even partaking in the Spectrum ride it was a fun week on the bike. Unfortunately towards the end of my week, I began to develop a rather annoying pain in my right knee. By the end of my ride on Sunday, the pain really decided to make the last twenty kilometers miserable.  I got it checked out this afternoon, and was diagnosed with Bursitis. So a solid week off the bike. Which also means no Sea Otter. Before I got injured I was able to convince my mind to go and race it, but I guess my body was on the other side of the spectrum. I'm not really too disappointed I wont be racing this weekend  because I finally have a reasonable excuse to take time off the bike and actual do this thing called recovery( which I haven't had much of.) In this brief hiatus from training, I have been spending my free time watching just about every tour ever filmed. So like I said, I'm not really too disappointed. I'm just looking at this minor speed bump in the road as a chance to recover. I'll give a brief update later on next week about the knee. Thanks for reading.
