Inside on the Trainer

September 11, 2009

It was really raining outside and the wind was blowing at about 40 mph so there was no way I was biking outside. I had enough of the wind at 15 mph, did not need to experience 40 mph. I set up my bike on the trainer and rode inside. Did not realize how much I liked it outside. I rode for 2 hours and did about 30 miles. I wonder how I am going to do 5 hours during the winter inside. I guess I will turn on the TV, watch a sports event and pedal. I can do it.

I have scheduled a ride for Sunday wth a good friend who is a great biker. Looking forward to it. I now will be able to see what kind of bike shape I am in after the ride. We will do between 50 and 60 miles at a pace faster than I am used to. I will give it my best and see where I am at in my training.
