Sorry for my late reply! I'm catching up on the posts after a busy week. Brady, you are doing great and are smart to realize when it's not your day and throw in the towel. The SR series will happen, no doubt!
--Ted, I agree that sometimes we can get obsessed with the goal and both fail to enjoy the process and pursue the goal to the detriment of our health and wellbeing too. At the same time I can relate to the sunk cost situation where I am 11/12ths of the way there, and even though the 12th one is going to be horrible, I don't want to start over at 1 again. It's important to remind ourselves that we are riding for fun (acknowledging that there are different types of "fun") and while perseverance is something to foster, it should not be to the detriment of our long-term health and well being. Stay safe and have "fun"! Toshi in Oakland, CA P.S. I'm planning on a Santa Cruz 200k on June 22nd, which should be relatively relaxed (compared to Bill's Marin mountains challenge!). After that a 100k mixed terrain ride up Mt. Tam--super fun SFR ride in August (El Paseito Mixto). Maybe I'll see some list members that day? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
