Training Ride JAY PEAK!



This Monday i had the chance to get my PM off from work, dew to some 21 hrs of overtime the week before.
So i went for my long training ride. 135km up Mt Sutton and then Jay Peak. 1775m of climb total. It was not my fastest time over all. I did do the ride at an average moving speed of 28,5km/h earlier this summer. I managed a good 25,5km/h on the total run, but it was a bit windy on Monday! What is interesting is that on the first side of Jay climb i managed a 22,1km/h average speed up. The new bike with good legs is a master on the climbs. All this is good for my road race objective the "Parc" later in September.

Last Saturday... Coldplay magic!



Last Saturday night, i was with two friends in Montreal for the Coldplay, Osheaga show! What a wonderful night! I had not see a show with this much vibration in years! They really rock with energy! I was amazed. I could not see this show without thinking of a good friend and friendship lost recently. At some moments the songs brought tears to my eyes, i'll pick up phrases from "fix you" Tears stream, down your face. When you lose something you cannot replace. Tears stream down your face and I.... I miss that person. Last year at about the same time i was seeing Radiohead with her, witch was not the same feeling of a show, but as good. Last summer was so much different for me, in feeling, in health and stress. Viva la champagne! I guess friendship come and goes like all moments in life. See you next time.
