Frustration!!

According to some wise advice from said coach, "take a nap."  As you can see that is really working for me right about now.

I left the house this a.m. with great intentions to rekindle the workout fire so to speak. Anyhow, it's been ages, I mean frickin ages since I have been MTBing.  So I figured, what the hell?  Like lets just go and have some different kinda fun today.  Wasn't too sure how my bike would be after being racked for months on end.  Lubed up all parts that needed a little somethin, somethin.  Inflated tires, check.  All was good or so I thought.  Best laid plans and all shot to fucking hell.

Got to La Cresta for the most xcellent single track out there.  Took my bike out of the X and crapola!  Flat rear tire.  So, did the entire tube take out, grab a new (s'posedly) tube from the bike bag.  Brought my floor pump (figured I just might need it) and started pumping just to get a little bit of air in the tube.  Nada.  So, I look down at the stem and there is a nice, giant hole in the seam.  Ok, well I'm screwed more or less.  I decide to pump up the tube that just went flat....ya know, just to see more or less.  Hey, we have game!  It is holding air--- hallelujah!  I was so psyched.  It was fun to actually get on my bike, clip in and do something diff today.  Lets just say, I got about a mile down the trail and kinda looped back, cuz I wasn't too dizzy with excitment that my old tube would hold up.  Surnuf...not!  I use some CO2, but at this point it really doesn't matter.  Bum deal. 

Not all is wasted mind you.  I did get in a short run.  Felt ok out there sorta.  Just not my usual ZIPP.  Hey, and I usually have alot of ZIPP mind you.  I know, don't be hatin and all that, but I really do.

Anyhow, long story short, is I'm getting just a little impatient with myself and xtremely frustated with my lack of ZIPP.   Maybe I'm just in a deep funk/rut/hole of gophers....

whatever at this point.  I'm so there and I want out, like NOW pleeeeze!!
