I'm getting onto the track in a few weeks for the first time in my life.
I figured that's where I have got the best shot at a Rainbow Jersey.

We've got a velodrome (the "Superdrome") here in Frisco, and I plan on
riding the track this offseason and into the winter (my team paid for
a night of private training during the offseason). But I gotta heal
my back. I pushed it hard, perhaps too hard, in my effort to lose
weight, and got a bulging disk and a sciatic nerve hooked to my L5/S1
joint. Six more weeks of light effort (pretty much no 20+ MPH
training rides. I can do distance and time, but no big ringing it or
pushing hard. So I put a 42 on my road bike, and will stick to 48x16
and above the stayers line on the track.
