another day inside as its cold (in the teens) and snowed yesterday and more coming today. held 312, 320, 318, 314 and 316. Really about 10 watts too low on all of them. Oh well.

Another day with some high cadence efforts a few short study state efforts and then three 5k tt’s. Held 349, 350 and 345 on the tt’s. Certainly feeling the effect of the 55 circuit class yesterday. Tomorrow is an off day.

This is pathetic but not surprising. I suspect there are many more who have been dominating well beyond what seems possible given their age. RALEIGH — At 62, David LeDuc was the aging – but often still invincible – king of bicycle racing in North Carolina.
