Day 2 in the bag

Tired and in pain but i successfully conquered a climb that got me off my bike last year.  So far despite the injuries and crashes it has been a very successful Vuelta.  Only got off on Camino Nuevo and didnt walk it and stayed on the bike all day today, except for a flat.

Tomorrow is the real test.  I know i wont make it over La Pared so i need to figure out if i take it from the front or that back, i dont want to cause problems for the peleton which may occur if i give it my all and fall, at the same time in the back i will be dealing with traffic and that wont work either.  We shall see.

Hopefully the trade winds wont do the same damage they did to me last year.

I now know i cannot use my Performance Bike bib shorts for anything more than a metric century, read welts adorn my softer areas.
