Pre-ride prep is done. Just need to get things loaded and make the trip over to Brentwood for the start of this ride. One of the great things about living in TN, rather than Indiana, like I was last year is that I don't have to drive a minimum of two and a half hours to join a brevet in either Kentucky or 5 hours to Tennessee!
This will be my second ride with any meaningful time using my new Shimano dynohub and Supernova E3 Pro light. I'll give some feedback on that combo in the post-ride report. I did a couple of minor adjustments to the Brooks saddle as well, by moving it slightly forward and a very, very slight height adjustment. I don't think the height will be a big change, as I swap seatposts between the 'racing' seat/seatpost and the brevet post/seat, so the height changes regularly.
While the Natchez Trace isn't my most favorite road to ride, it will be good time to just chill intellectually and emotionally, after the recent upheavals with work and such. I do look forward to the mind-numbing monotony of the Trace in that regard. Hey - maybe I'll download War And Peace and listen to that on the ipod?
........... now to get the ride on!
