I'll join. I think I'll have to do just about all of the weekday rides on the trainer -- there are quite a few one hour rides and with an hour long commute each way, I leave the house for work before dark and get home after dark and I just don't feel comfortable riding in the dark that long. I'm game to try it though! I'll have to stock up on videos or something since I find just 30 minutes on the trainer painful!
I read this book on my ipad while recovering from an injury (when I couldn't ride). I'll break it out this weekend and skim it again so I'll be ready on Monday.

Just to clarify, the name of the book is Ride Your Way Lean. Focus on *lean* and fit instead of *thin*. Semantics to some but an important distinction for many of us, including, I would guess, Ms. Yeager.
It's a good book and a very doable program. I tried the century schedule but got side tracked. I wish you much success!

I ignored the total rest day and did a leisurely two-hour ride this afternoon. It got up to 77 today, and we won't have many more days like this in ND until spring! My starting weight is 143 (ten pounds more than I was just a year ago) so I'm doing the "Lose a dress size or more" routine.

I'm enjoying that today is a rest day ....because my bike is in the shop :-) Here's hoping they finish it today (they think they might) or I'm likely in the gym on a spin bike tomorrow.
