Back in the Basement

Normal Winnipeg spring weather forced me back to the basement. Or actually it was the dark because wifey is sick and little chica had too much energy to burn tonight, meaning that I was strongly advised not to go outside to play. And it was hard to go back to trying to be entertained by Paris-Nice while pushing through intervals. It's so much easier outside. So my return to trainer looks like below (there was a bit of a suffer-fest yesterday for 90min). All I can say is that I'm not an evening training type of guy.


Had pretty good weekend though. On Sunday I rode to the park and hooked up first with Dave, Eric and Brad, but they were just finishing their ride and then I rode for few laps with Marian and Lifesport train. Good ride and tons of people in the park since it was the first spring Sunday of the year. Marian has been coaching the Boy and trying to train himself as well. He has a full-time job though so he can't train the way he used to before. The Boy is in good condition though, might be a good season coming up in the duck pond. Below is a photo of my Sunday ride. I finished the ride by towing little lady in the Chariot behind my MTB and that combination works pretty well when riding with the wife. She can actually drop me on the hills on her CX with road tires.


And again I got some feedback from my faithful fans. Apparently leaving the numbers out is childish and cocky. It's nice that at least someone reads my blog but I'm terribly sorry if my stories upset those readers. I guess I'm getting old because I feel kinda guilty for upsetting people with my blog rambling. Thank you for the feedback though, I'll do my best to meet your expectations.

Good night.
