A Pretty Good Week
I didn’t hit my 200+ mile goal this week, but considering I had family obligations for three days, I’ll take 180. This week I’m hoping to push quite a bit of steady-state rides until the cold weather flies by and then work in more interval and hill training. Today marked one big turning point: I’m…

2024 – First Week
A pretty decent start to 2024. I was able to work in 207 miles. In fact, for this time of year, I’d say “Outstanding!” Each ride was kind of chilly (Maybe even cold!) and a bunch of slush on Saturday. I’ll take it. Next week’s totals are guaranteed to fall off as I have several…
