Crisp and cold no more

Today’s probably the last of the crisp, very cold days, where riding has been lovely, as long as you don’t fall off. Now the weather turns wetter, amd much windier, so there are still many and varied excuses to stay off the roads. If you can stand it, then turbo training options are many and varied, giving you targetted, controlled sessions developing your aerobic capabilities. Try using any of the Endurance sessions listed at the bottom of this blog, and work your way steadily through them. Having said that, this eekend looks good, so do try and get out with the club. I think that training around this time of year is most usefully done on flatter roads, as this eliminates the culture of sprinting up the hills, and resting for the rest of the time in case there’s another hill round the next bend.

While Im at it, have a look at www.jbst.com for some nice turbo sessions, and also have a look at www.trainright.com for some interesting stuff about Lance’s training at the moment.
