I MUST Be Doped Up

'Cause no one can recover as fast as i have after these XL base rides. Really. Sometimes the algorithm is exactly right. Caloric balance is good. Calories are quality. Rest is adequate. It's a swell feeling...but it's so hard to replicate. At least for me. I really only know if i'm properly recovered after those first 5-6 pedal strokes...it's a great feeling when they go smoothly, and total shite if you know you didn't recharge proper -there is no middle ground here. And that's what this whole "Base Training" game is all about. Studying the body, noting what it likes, what makes it go. Still, I've two ridiculous weeks coming up and doubt i'll be as spry when i'm midway through a 30 hour bloc. One day at a time, chico.

So yes: In spite of the ongoing Writers' Strike, the hardworking crew here at The Aram Chronic has managed to resume production. The quality might suffer a bit with the replacements, but our esteemed editor will work out the kinks...but it's late now, and he must sleep. Please enjoy these vintage pre-strike photos in the meantime:
