Glad to hear you are on the mend and back to biking. I took a break from my bike for other adventures and have not been on it for several years, but today I got back on (on the trainer). I will be...
Just FWIW, about 2-3 weeks ago, I finally had a week where I was TIRED, CRANKY, and CRAVING. I didn't do it on purpose, but I ended up just eating for about 3 days: chips, ice cream, beer, etc. ...
Holy cow. What a ride report (and ride!). I am amazed.
What is this cycling dress? (eta...saw the castelli dress on your website...is that what you wore?)
I only check by looking outside: what weather is hovering over the water, the mountains? Is there ice on the bird bath or not? Do I need a fire this morning or not?
But, several years ago I had...
channl, thank you for your vulnerable and honest post. :)
eta: and while I was responding, V & GLC added a lot of what else I was thinking! :-)
Wow, the demo video on that site is pretty amazing. I knew a few ways to fold and wear these, but not all they show. Cool! :)
Lighter, more aggressive & dressed in Sram (probably). :)
I too am in month 4 of working in the gym with a trainer. I wanted weight loss and cross training for better overall strength, balance and athleticism. And, I am hoping to train for a really hard...
Please don't feed me kidney pie, or put kidneys in the stew.

Welcome aboard, and congrats on getting back in shape. Wonderful that you guys are doing this together. :) Nice choice of bike, BTW. Pics?
Great pics. You're right, you're gonna get faster, and I'll bet you can't even imagine right now all the things that you will be doing on that bike in the years to come. Enjoy!! :)
Thanks, GLC.
And, thanks for all the suggestions here. I lost a couple finally this week. I took several of your suggestions. I recommitted to measuring food and I changed up some types of...
This crowd could turn ugly if we don't see pictures soon... :p
If you are thinking about using any kind of audio to help build your cadence, you might be interested in the Zooming CDs. Below is a post I did about them from some other thread. I love the Zooming...
Yep. She's sitting there looking like she's now seen it all twice. :)
Thanks, everyone!
I have about decided that I am going to keep with about the same calories (as it is already fairly low, but I adjust depending on workouts), but really change up what I am eating...
Sounds like we are in a little of the same boat (except I don't have a farm!). That Crater Lake Century looks awesome. That is a fantastically beautiful area. I have vacationed in that neck of the...
I think it makes sense what you say about foods, and I think maybe I have gotten sloppy with measuring.
The weight routine changes a lot. I really like this trainer...all kinds of weird things...
Depending on your community, you might broaden your focus beyond sports related groups. There are a lot of other organizations that have weekly meetings where some poor soul has to come up with a...
Veronica, you might not have felt great, but you look super strong.
I have a question about the "arm rests" on your bars. I haven't been around much, and have not seen just those rests without...
Hey GLC, good to "see" you! Hope you guys are still enjoying OR!
So...you think that changing types of things I eat...even if the calories stay the same and it is all just different healthy...
I know I'm late to the party on this thread, but a couple years ago training for the climbing ride down at Shasta, this online book was really helpful.
One of the key points is how to use a...
For a year or so, I did nothing but split a little wood and mow my lawn. Then, 3 months ago, I started strength training with a trainer and doing basic cardio (with some intensity) on the machines,...
