Some Days Just Don't Feel Right

Sometimes, when I have a horrible round of golf, I comment that my bike never lets me down like my golf clubs do. I never ride down the road and seemingly forget how to ride, falling off into the ditch. To watch me play golf some days, you would certainly think I forgot how.

On the other hand, there are days on the bike when my body just doesn't seem to react when my brain says "take that hill". I had one of those rides the other day. I didn't seem tired, it wasn't very hot, there seemed to be no excuse at all, yet I just felt sluggish. Riding at a moderate pace on level ground seemed like an effort. Riding up hills seemed nearly impossible.

So, I guess in golf or in cycling, it really isn't the equipment that lets me down, it's the body that just isn't quite the same every day. When you have one of those "off" days, not to worry, the old form will be back soon
