February = FAIL!
So far, so bad. The cold has kept me off the bike. The only ride I’ve done this month was one to the train station and back with a bit of a detour to the 7/11. Need to pull my finger out and hope for the cold and wind to go away. Latest mileage: 5km […]

Goal! 1004.47km January
Over the last few days I didn’t think I was going to make it. Cold and wind and lack of motivation kept me off the bike more than was planned for and I stayed home yesterday psyching myself up for today. Even went to the extreme motivating tactic of shaving my legs last night to […]

A few guys I train with have had a BG Fit and I have noticed a great improvement in their riding abilities. Especially with extra speed with seemingly little effort. I know my positioning is not great and possibly my bike sizes are not exact. The price for this is probably not cheap and would […]
Day Off
Too lazy to make the most of the day off today and did practically nothing till night time sprint training. No long warm up like last week just a short one lapper then start. 3 starters and 3 late comers. After a bit of a nose bleed on the third lap I took it easy […]
