The left knee seemed to heal a good bit overnight and was at least 50% better today. Encouraged by the improvement, I rode the trainer for just over an hour while watching stage 19 of the 2004 Tour. It wasn't particularly exciting tape but I still have notwatched all the stages that were taped while I was over there. Anyway, I rode a little above tempo in my 48x18. Nice workout to keep the legs fresh and maintain fitness. The legs feel a little heavy as I type this so it must have been a decent ride.
News Item of the Day: Italian Ivan Basso (CSC) is reportedly interested in riding a couple of cyclo-cross races over winter. His manager Gerrie van Gerwen is looking for interested organisers, and Basso could race in the Azencross in Belgium on December 29.
Viewpoint: Lance did some 'cross a couple winters ago in TX and finished either first or second. I don't recall exactly. It will be interesting to see how Basso fares. He will have tougher competition probably.

Lance won that race, lapping the entire field, including the state champion! But the course didn't look too hard from what I could tell from the photos.
I did a little research and actually he and the TX champ both lapped the field together. Lance put the hammer down on the last lap though and won by 20 seconds.
