transition week

Like last week was my first "race" week. This was my first "transitition" week.

Tokyo~Itoigawa yielded a TSS score of 500. Roughly equivalent to 5 days of solid training.

The transition week is all about recovery. I feel fatigued for days after the event. A few early nights. Easy riding in zones 1 and 2.

This is also a chance to set up the GS Astuto aero bike. These bikes are so adjustable. The seat has a sliding position on the top of the stem. The aerobars can be set up in so many different ways.

A few days of testing it, I do the final tuning on Saturday morning.

I think I've got it set up right.

The next thing to do is try riding it hard and fast.

I hope to test it out at a track meeting and the Uchinada TTT next month...
