Headed to Ault Park to do some 30 second on/off efforts, 16 to be exact. Held 569, 631, 661, 671, 606, 598, 575, 638, 607, 613, 614, 596, 525, 550, 529, and 517. Sorta dying by the end but for the whole 45 minutes normalized power was 345. I actually like these short but intense […]

WInter came back with some snow yesterday and highs in the 30’s so it was another indoor session. Did five 2/2/1 efforts at tempo/steady state/tt pace. Held 280+, 330+ and 360+ on all. Had to replace he hub batteries on the Indoor 400. That wasn’t as much an issue as having to pair and activate

Headed to Tennessee on Thursday afternoon and was able to gets couple of hours in before the sunset. Did four 10 minute efforts with the first 8 minutes around steady state (330) and then two minutes all out. Held 404, 368, 365 and 370 on the two minute efforts. Have to say my legs weren’t

It was a great day to ride in the mountains with temps starting in the upper 40’s and going to the low to mid 70’s. I rode from our home in Gatlinburg (1400′) to Newfound Gap (5000′) and then down to Cherokee (1400′) then back up to Newfound Gap and on to Clingmans Dome (6300′,

A little too cool (upper 50’s) and breezy from the wrong direction (south west) for great times but still rode a solid 22:07 or 27.13 mph on the course. Checked last years April event and I rode the exact same time. Used the Stages but for some reason couldn’t get the power meter to pair

after some steady states in the middle of last week the rest of the week was just at endurance pace. The first outdoor time trial is Wednesday in Dayton. Looks like a cool evening with temps in the 50’s. Took the tt bike out yesterday for a short ride just to make sure the position

Finally mounted the new Joule and paired it to the Stages crank arm. No problems there at all. Still not satisfied with the mounting of the joule. As shown between the bars its easy to see in the aero position but its not convenient to activate the buttons on the right side of the unit.

Did 32 minutes today at 330 watts, broken into 4 x 8 minute efforts with just a minute between each. Used Riverside Drive from Delta to The Boathouse, 8 minutes in each direction. Rounded out the day with one hour circuit class late in the day.

 Had my bike fit today with Kathy at Oakley Cycles. Made no changes to the tt bike position and on the road bike installed some shorter reach bars and flipped the stem from level to 3 degrees up. Need to work on hamstring flexibility which was expected.
