I’m resting. At this point, with just days before the century ride, riding lots of miles isn’t really going to make me do any better on this coming long ride. I am riding–short distances–to keep my legs fresh, but I also know that I can’t cram in miles.

I’m also making sure my equipment is in decent shape before the long ride, and that I have enough equipment with me (like spare tubes). I’m also trying to find people who live along the ride where I can stash a small cooler with fresh, frozen water bottles and G2. I’ve also got some new sunscreen which I intend to carry with me.

On the tech side, I’m planning on bringing my GPS equipped phone so folks can track my progress on the map on the Athletic-Diabetic.com home page as well as Tweet from time to time. I’ve brought a camera in the past too, so that is likely to happen as I try to document this year’s ride.

I’ll be running out of rest time soon.
