Yeah, my main focus is racing. I've been racking up the miles just training...

We also did the 305 mile new years ride (21 hours, pretty damn hard, It wasn't easy, haha) so that makes this months mileage a lot more, too.

I might do Palm Springs if there arent any races, that would be fun.

I feel undertrained.. but, I have a FT job and don't ride on the road much (trainer, but no road this month yet).

127mi
18000ft of climbing.

But, I don't count the hikes and downhill runs at Fontana, and XC racing is only 14mi.
