I want to start today's daily accountability because I feel like I rocked my over/unders. No problemo.

Wednesday Hump Day Motivation
This is what google was saying to me for ideas on overcoming mid week slumps : Wednesday motivation focuses on overcoming the "hump day" slump through mid-week reflection, gratitude, and setting small, actionable goals to boost productivity. Key ideas include reviewing goals, tackling tough tasks, practicing self-care, or using inspiring quotes to boost energy for the remainder of the week. Do any of you use these tips and if so how do you incorporate them? Or do you find other things that work well for you? Spent too much time looking after Caoimhe over the last few days as she has her first race next week. Feeling a lot more flat for it to be honest š Definitely feels quite different living in Ireland compared to Spain too. Itās so easy to leave the house and just go for a walk when the weather is that bit better. Even going to the local shop for an Aquarius. Might be the fact that I live in rural Ireland but even still I feel like itās so much easier to leave the house when the weather is that bit better. The darker, winter days here definitely are a big change too - I donāt know how some of you do it when you are snowed in for months on end at this time of year.

EF Diaries - Equipment Chat
Some equipment chat today. Nothing massively insightful but I said Iād share it anyways. This post wonāt be for everyone so I am just highlighting that now in case you are bored stuff reading through this. I hope that Malte enjoys it though šš Wheels are the Vision Metrons in the 45 and 60mm options. Internal 23, external 32. Steel spokes. Not the lightest or the fastest but they arenāt a disadvantage - some teams on Shimano wheels or DT Swiss or swissside for example š¤¢ Picnic and FDJ can be thrown in here too. Even Rovals are not my cup of tea - too narrow unless you are on very smooth roads. Iām quite picky on wheels as you can see but Vision gets a pass which is good. Theres no mainstream world tour wheel brand which gets a gold star from me - you need to go to Panda Podium for that. Bahrain which is another Vision sponsored team are using the gravel wheels for the Belgian classics which are a nice bit wider. Theyāre using 32mm front and rear which would sit quite nicely so Iām hoping that the EF guys get to use them too for the Belgian classics in particular - big gains. Otherwise they are going using the Vittoria Corsa TT tyres in a 30mm as their standard race tyre. The training bike has a 52 x 39 (sram) chainring and for races theyāll have the option of 54 x 41. Not sure about 1 x options yet but hopefully they have them. I completely disagree with 1 by for road unless you have deep pockets where you have multiple bikes or live in Florida or something. But for pros the aero and weight gains are definitely worth it. Theyāll probably use the gravel groupset too for some early season classics but we havenāt heard about this yet. They have a guy who is the aero/equipment expert so riders can message him as much as they like to theorise some potential equipment decisions for particular races. No two races are the same so it does make sense to tinker around with different wheels, tyres, gear ratios, skinsuits and so on depending on the course. I can imagine that Malte would regularly avail of this service š¤š¤
