Rest-week legs

Guh. I took it pretty easy on Wednesday, and I had a nice, relaxing ride to and from work last night. So, really, my legs should feel at least sort of OKish.

But they don't. They never feel good during rest weeks. It's a lactic acid-type feeling pretty much all the time while turning the cranks. Sure, it'll probably work itself out before the race on Saturday, but that doesn't mean it feels good right now.

So while I'm waiting for my legs to wake up, here's the plan for today:
-- Clean the bike (just enough to make it look semi-respectable)
-- Put new tires on the backup wheels (which now include my rear Dura-Ace wheel)
-- Clean and ready the race wheels du jour (these, with an assist from Mr. Miles)
-- Pace around

Pretty awesome, right? Well, maybe not the part about the pacing. But that's how it works sometimes.
