Did a warm up lap with my buddy Todd at an easy pace and then met up with the guys. 10min in Jimbo attacked, I was able to bridge to him with a few other guys. We were working together and determined I felt reasonably good. When I bridged up the acceleration was there, like normal. We got to the final overpass and Jimbo attacked again and I was the only one who bridged up to him. The others caught the light so he and I worked together fighting the wind and opening the gap for the next 10 or so minutes.
Here's a power snippet of that break.
Shut it down after that and limped my self back home. I was spent but I could have gone more, though not at that level. No sense digging a hole that would need some extra recovery tiime. While not my best performance of the season, the diesel has its turbo's back and might have enough boost to race Masters Regionals this weekend in a race or two.
All in all, it looks like the power is coming back around, I definitely couldn't do this last week though I'm still quite a bit off from where I was when I started this odyssey. It might take few more weeks to get things more evened out but this is a good sign. That San Jac crit is starting to look like a possibility!
