TAPER!!!!

After 10 months of intense training we have finally reached taper. This is the part of an endurance training season where the long, hard workouts become shorter, less rigorous, and geared towards recovery and rest. This is obviously a very celebratory event. There was an unusual buzz in the air on Saturday as we could feel the sense of relief that comes with taper and as you can see, it spilled out during our ride on Saturday.

We are in TAPER!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!
