"At the peak of tremendous and victorious effort, while the blood is pounding in your head, all suddenly comes quiet within you. Everything seems clearer and whiter than ever before, as if great spotlights had been turned on. At that moment, you have the conviction that you contain all the power in the world, that you are capable of everything, that you have wings. There is no more precise moment in life than this, the WHITE MOMENT, and you will work hard for years, just to taste it again."

Road rash

I got a small case of road rash today on a training ride. Road rash this early in my triathlon season is a sure sign of good luck. Looks like I'm going to have a great racing season in 2012!

I'm gratefull I was wearing a pair of $3 cotton shorts rather than a pair of $50 cycling shorts. Skin is self healing, Lycra isn't.
