So I'm not sure if it's a relative lack of sleep over the past few days, or if it's my body continuing its recovery from the beating it took over the past few months, but I continue to feel fatigued and slightly sore, especially in the big-mover muscles. It really came out after that regeneration work the other day. If I feel so inclined, I may do more regen stuff today and MIGHT play with the pipe for a little bit. Otherwise, after work is fueling up and spot-checking the bike and packing.
Speaking of packing, which includes snacks, my usual "protein bar" is the Detour caramel peanut
bar. I opted for a box of the low-sugar
variety yesterday (never tried before, says 83% less sugar, which likely means just more sugar alcohols) but also saw and tried a newer oatmeal
version that I'd never seen before. It was GOOD, very heavy (so it could end up being two meals, especially at 460kCal per bar), and so may be an additional
purchase next time I visit the supplement
store (it's a tad more expensive than ordering online, especially with fuel prices the way they are, but I like having a local go-to guy, especially since he can have any supplement I want in stock the day after I ask for it).
Of course, I could take Roland's advice and just keep my mouth open while riding down the road, which probably won't do much good as I have a full-face helmet
