Week to Forget

Well, as if crashing on my feet, and then suffering the various pains that accompanied that gracefulness, I also found myself suffering through five days of tooth pain before finally convincing myself it was not going away on its own. Surprise, a root canal in a tooth that had already been "cleaned out" by such a procedure years ago. Pain, apprehension, sleepless exhaustion has dominated the past week. Now that I feel "recovered" enough to ride again we have a potential for three days of wet weather heading into, and carrying us through, the weekend.

With the finish line in sight there is a pile-up right in front of you.
