Racing Season is Coming!

I am excited about the 2011 racing season. At the moment I will be racing in the Dirt Dash 30 km race at the Tour of Bronte. I will be in the 60 km Paris to Ancaster race as well. There are plans for the Liberty Bikes Summer Series, the Lake to Lake, the Squeezer and maybe one or two O-cup races. If the Winter W.O.W Race goes we might be there. The Crank the Shield Race is not running this year, but I plan to be ready for it in 2012
I've been slowly increasing my weekly riding. I think I may have overtrained last winter. During last summer I felt tired and had trouble finding speed. I know I can be fast, but I have to keep from burning out half wy through the season.
Right now I'm having a little trouble with Back Spasms but I think I can get past it. At least for the shorter races that is. The longer races like P2A and L2L may be painful. I may have to stick with races that are 40 km and less in length.
I was planning on doing the St.George to Ancaster but Shawn talked me out of it. If he beats me at P2A I'm going to steal his chain the next time we line up at the start of a race.
