Activity-Cycling Distance-10.81 Time-42.54 Tonight I started doing the Spinervals workouts tonight.  I started off with the Zoot Challenge.  The video starts off saying it is a 9.5 out of 10 on the hardness scale.  I must say they do not lie.  It was one of the harder trainer videos that I have done in the [...]

So I took the day off today, but not because of my choice. While on my lunch break, I had to change pedals on my bike and I broke the bike. Where the pedals screw into, a sleeve came out of the carbon fiber, making me send it to the maker to get me a [...]

Activity-cycling Distance-15.95 Time-55.35 I took a 2 hour lunch break today so I could get out and ride in the middle of the day.  I must say it was nice.  It was a tad chilly, 35 degrees, but with 3 layers of everything, I was warm enough.  I guess all that matters is that I [...]

Activity-cycling Distance-7.3 Time-30.25 Just another day sitting on the trainer watching the tour. Legs feel good from the weekend rides, but more importantly so does my butt. I changed over my saddle before I got on the bike, so that probably helped being I think the other saddle has just about ridden its last ride. [...]

Activity-cycling Distance-16.37 miles Time-55.26 What a day.  65 degrees outside on the 6th of January.  At this point, I must say the heck with global warming.  We can worry about come spring time.  Sure, the skiing industry is hurting big time in this area, but I work in the bike industry.  If I can ride [...]

Sport-Snowboarding Time-1 hour We took a little break from the office today and got out snowboarding. Second time of the year we were out and conditions weren’t all that great. Could it be because it was 50 degrees this afternoon? Maybe. Either way, the sun is melting just enough snow that I might be able [...]

I cant believe all the nonsense that goes on with this Whole Floyd Landis Drug case.  Some of you might not know, but Floyd Landis won the Tour de France in 2006 but has been implicated in drug use.  Everything is quite rediculous.  I read some things today on the cbc.ca (Canadian CBS type show) [...]

Activity-Indoor Biking Distance-7.57 miles Time-31:47 So today starts the beginning of a 4 month training period.  I have set some things for myself that I want to achieve before my birthday.  I have some “new years resolutions” that I need to carry out.  Some of them are weight loss related, some are raccing related, but [...]
