Yesterday, Ludovic Turpin won a stage of the Dauphine Libere. Today, he broke his femur. Up until the Dauphine Libere, Floyd Landis had won all the stage races he started. All week, he has been losing minutes on the leaders. Today, he lost 27 minutes and is sitting 49th overall.

Yesterday, I took my own unscheduled rest day off the bike. Today, I was going to make up for the slacking by flogging myself on a time trial. I hate time trials.

Instead, today finds me next to the kitties stuck in bed with a horrible pain in the lower right side of my back. It's not clear where this ache came from. One time, I had a slight pain like this from cutting my toenails, but this time it is much more uncomfortable. Perhaps, the seat "tush cush" I got for the old dilapated seat of my work vehicle? It sits me up sort of high and a little stretched out in the leg department. Well, today is almost over so I hope tomorrow is a better day. I'd even do a time trial to show my appreciation for feeling better.
