Welcome to the forums! I too ride alone quite often. Some days I find it relaxing, other days challenging. I have to whip out my trainer soon! ICK! I took last winter "off" and didn't ride the trainer, this year not so lucky! I can only watch my Tour tapes so many times before I stop caring, and with my new found boredom with Lance it makes it all the more difficult. Oh well. Maybe I will get some of the old school DVDs from World Cycling...

Have a lovely day.
