no race

due to the weather earlier today, and that two of the four who were going to race are sick. and those two happen to be the ones with cars. i did not go to the race today.
so after class which was nothing interesting at all thus a waste of space on the internet to write about was over. i had an email frenzy with the other guy that was going to race. we decided to go for a nice hardish ride starting at 5.
so i suited up in lots of clothes again, but no hat! and met him at the appointed place. this was half hour into my ride, and i was warm so i even took off my shoe covers. we continued to the local mountain and did once hard. i felt like crap. i ate to much after lunch. didnt drink enough water. throat was blocking air intake and making legs tired. and all that kind of fun stuff. so i guess it was good i did not race. but anyway. he was not feeling great either so we did it one more time med easy except the very top. then down the other side of the hill. back towards konstanz doing short sprints up the small hills we came across. those did not make me feel quite so crappy. but my legs were tired. in one of the bigger towns along the way we came across one of his friends. they talked for a bit and i was noticing issues on my bike. the guy worked in the bike shop in town and noticed what i was doing and came and looked. my bottom bracket is really quite loose and wiggly, and then i would guess the mystery sound of something seemingly skipping is from this, but it might not be. but i am going to his shop to get it looked at tomorrow. hopefully they can fix it. if not i need to take a train to fix it. i cant race on it cause it make a bad sound/feel when i accel hard. and that is what a race is. after this we continued on aways and after 3 hours and 40 minutes of biking i was home.
and that was pretty much my day.
