Gear up for Gearing down?

Sea Otter, Boggs, Napa, they were all just training rides... for what? Cool24. Next weekend we put 7 months of training on the line for single-speed mayhem. 24 hours of non-stop, one-gear, lap after lap after lap! The Mad Cat A-Team is attempting to bring home the first place finish in the 3rd annual Coolest24 MTB Race Against Cancer. We're up against a few other teams and they too are throwing down to bring home the bacon. It'll all come down to laps times, efficiency and smooth sailing with regards to clean laps without "mechanicals" or "physicals". We're putting it on the line, but we're also looking forward to the fun, the community, and hanging out with the team at a race that raises money for a good cause.

After Cool..? hmm. havent' really thought that far ahead. We've got our Gear Swap coming up, family vacation in June, then Death Ride in July and CX training from there on out. I personally am looking forward to CX season. I'm going to train and attempt to do well this year. We'll see what happens. Worse case is that I start off winter in great shape which is never a bad thing.
