January 3 rides

Ugh... Trainer again this am! Still snowing here and quite a bit on the roads. No shoulder to ride on anywhere, and stupid drivers. Scary stuff!!!!

I logged about 30km... 10 on my TT bike, but my back I had hurt didn't ease, so I got my Femetape, but after 200m it had a flat tire... so then I got my road race bike and gave him a steady 20km on the road...

43 miles, 34 degrees w/a starting windchill of 30 (went lower as ride progressed). Unfortunately, humidity was high so it was that damp, bonechilling type of cold.

Got more miles than degrees on the thermometer yesterday! Started out at 22 degrees with a windchill of 14, ended 32 miles later with a temperature of 28 and a windchill of 20. I still had a good ride despite the cold and will be doing so again today.

Freezing Rain & Snow=Trainer Rides, but I don't mind

I bought a KK Road Machine right after Christmas and it has served me well the last few days!!

I'm re-watching season 1 of Grey's Anatomy while I ride, it helps pass the time very much.

Another date with with the trainer. This time, Chris Carmichael Interval Training for Mtn. Bike Racers (not that I'm a mtn. bike racer, but it's a good interval workout nonetheless). Although the sun was out today, it was pretty windy (good for you for braving that wind, deedolce!). Butt had residual soreness from sitting on the trainer yesterday, but I'm hoping it toughens up soon.

Looks like my riding group will be getting back together sometime mid-to-late January, so I'm hoping to get back to outdoor riding at that time.

This morning it is COLD -- mid 20's. The newscasters were saying that it's colder here in California than it is in Chicago this morning! Should warm to around 50 for the high though, which is probably hot to most of you this time of year.
