Get Off My Trail
I picked a really short ride because I had planned on joining a training ride. Then technical problems happened and I never joined said ride. Instead I rode in circles. This did allow me to be lazy and then sprint until I wanted to puke as I went on a leaderboard hunt. I doubt it was effective training but when you are too lazy to
I’ve been on the trainer for the past 3 days. For whatever reason Zwift disconnected from Strava so not all the rides made it over. Multiple days on the trainer leaves the brain a mess of indistinguishable memories that all blur together and my legs are still whining and crying out with debilitating cramps. I keep telling myself tomorrow will be the day I feel
Not real London just Zwift London. I did make it past Buckingham Palace. I waved at the queen. Not the real queen but I imagine the virtual queen in her virtual Zwift Palace cheering all of us on. The ride – Zwift
I’m lazy and I hate pain. It’s really easy to get on the trainer and just spin. There aren’t any bumps, technical bits or core-trashing balance moments like there are in mountain biking. The isn’t any wind or road vibration like there is on a road bike. However, there are group rides and training rides that make you sweat and leaving you wishing you could
Everything can be blamed on the stupid virus so I’m blaming my apparent loss of strength and speed on the entire thing. I keep hoping my tears after these Zwift rides will lead to performance gains but alas I think with each passing ride I’m just getting older not faster. The rides – Zwift
It’s windy and rainy and I’m a wimp and don’t ride in that stuff unless I really have to. I’ve been waiting for Dune to come out and with grey skies and a couple of hours on a trainer ahead of me I watched it all. I had seen the 1984 version but I’ve mostly forgotten it. It wasn’t bad but you have to really
Turns out today would have been a great day to be outside but I had already planned to ride inside and burned up the remainder of my legs on a “recovery ride”. Must go outside tomorrow. The ride – Zwift
I keep feeling like I’m getting old and slow. I’m putting my faith in Zwift to get faster this winter. This ride hurt so good. The rides – Zwift
Cold, snow, and a limited schedule equal another day on Zwift. I’ve been feeling especially weak lately. I kept telling myself that I was taking a “rest” day but every day can’t be a rest day. Today I was determined to hold onto my power no matter what comes. For the first half I managed to hold on and output the kinds of wattage I
I really wanted to get the fat bike out and head into the hills. However it snowed wit h the trees holding onto their leaves. The carnage was universal with broken branches covering roads and lawns and branches breaking in real time downing power lines with a bright lightning like flash lig ridehting the dark skies. I didn’t want to be the one hearing all
