Pre Race Jitters?

Generally speaking, I have a love/hate relationship with cycling. Some days I feel free, powerful and as though I am flying. Not today!

Today I had a horrible bike ride. I felt uncomfortable, as in nervous uncomfortable. I felt like all the gains I have made over the winter are lost.

I did not feel strong. I did not feel at ease. I am still having trouble with my new cleats and pedals. I was very wobbly in aero. Not how I want to feel 2 days before a race.

Tonight I am going to set my bike up on the trainer and try to get this figured out. I may even put my old pedals back on. I know some of this may be psychological but a girl's got to do what a girl's got to do.
