Tomorrow the test begins.

The panniers are packed, the bike is ready, all that's left is to load it all into the car and do the event.

Today's tuning ride was an easy commute to and from work, 35 miles round trip with full weight+. The morning half was easy, cool, beautiful sun rise, slowly increasing temperature. The afternoon half, less enjoyable. My legs felt like cement. Funny the difference a day makes.

I'm still psyched for the ride, just a little more realistic in my outlook (less "Bring it on" and more "I can take it").
