Well, it seems like time flies by when you are having fun, or something like that.  At least that is the way it seems when you are riding in 40+ degree temps in February in New England.
While the mid-Atlantic states have been getting pounded pretty hard with snow, here in New Hampshire, it has been [...]

Last night was my lactate threshold testing night.  Fun stuff, not really, but very important.
My plan for the evening was get the rollers rolling for an easy 10 minutes as a nice warm up.  Then, 30 minutes, all out effort.  10 minutes in, reset the heart rate monitor at 10 minutes as I can toss [...]
