Tokyo Disney Resort & Kasairinkai Park

Today, as usual running late for training after feeding the dogs so I did a little 5km warm up on the rollers before heading out into the cold. Some electrical tape repair work on my shoe covers kept my toes warm today. I ordered a new pair of shoe covers on amazon the other day […]

Wednesday Night Frostbite Sprint Training Session #1

We had snow last night followed by heavy rain then nice blue skies all day. The roads were nice and dry by 9p.m just in time for my first sprint training session since our big crash. I wanted to do an hour’s warm up, but by the time I played with the doggies, and got […]

Hitachinaka Simulation Training

After not having used the home DVD player in a long long time, I thought it would be good to train on the roller while watching my favorite cycling DVD. 30km of serious rolling is about as much as I can bare and that’s a good distance for my Hitachinaka training for June. Nasu: Summer […]

Stats Day 8

Today I thought work started as usual but finished early. On arrival I discovered I’m supposed to start late and finish as usual! Damn, damn, damn… wanted to get in 60km after work. I have to get some in now just to keep my average clicking over. This is a long weekend coming up with […]

Stats Day 7

After riding to work yesterday and coming home through a chilling wind, I didn’t feel like going to training again two hours later. I just wanted to thaw my feet out in a hot bath and go to bed. That would have been an extra 40 or so more kilometers for my mileage. Work today […]

Bicycle Anti Theft Device

Two thieves on a motor-scooter flew by and snatched a womans purse on a street in Wenzhou, China. Surveillance video shows a man riding a bicycle. As he was passing by the front of a hotel near where the thievery happened, he stopped, calmly got off his bicycle, picked it up, and then threw it […]

Nexus One

I’ve never had the urge to buy an i-phone but this phone from google may be the one that cyclists turn to. It will have great interactivity with google maps and what I’m wondering is how much it will effect companies like Garmin. Having a heart rate monitor may be what saves some of the […]

Dandelion tea

Confusing weighing yourself everyday. Weight up, body fat down. That’s why it’s important not to starve yourself or fret too much if the figures don’t make sense. We want good weight loss not muscle loss. I feel my metabolism is picking up already this year. I’ve been drinking a lot of tanpopocha which is Japanese […]

Stats Day 5

No weight stats today as I’ve yet to shower… First day back at work today and an easy two and a half hours it was. Two hours tomorrow, then back to full time schedule from Thursday. Today there was a nice northerly breeze blowing which helped me on the outward bound journey and it was […]
