Not much activity for the car or the bike this weekend
After a health dump of snow across the UK this weekend, road cycling is currently off the agenda. My attention has switched to shovelling snow off the driveway and going hiking. There was also a small amount of pseudo-cycling when I set up the dreaded turbo trainer in the freezing cold garage on Sunday evening. There isn’t really much of interest to say about turbo training which is why I rarely do it. I started off cold and quickly became a hot wreck, leaking sweat and dribble all over the bike and garage floor. It certainly wasn’t a pleasant sight, but was contained within the privacy of the garage so shouldn’t have caused any alarm to the neighbours other than a constant whirring noise for 45 minutes.
Strange noises were coming from the garage
i find that it best to setup in the carport outside when i use the training or i get very hot. my favorite drill is – listen to ipod – hard for one song – rest the next one and hope free bird isnt followed by norwegian wood.
Are “free bird” and “norwegian wood” dulcimer tunes?
Help – Pete has stolen my identity!! I would NOT want to imply that I actually cycle … but I do like the sinister band of light across the snow ……..
Ah, that makes more sense!
Impressive. You will have to use the energy from the trainer to power an electric fan to cool you down and evaporate the sweat.
It would be good to use the energy from the trainer for something useful
Wow. That’s a lot of snow. Looks pretty spectacular. Am sure all the shoveling of snow is giving you a great workout.
I hope so. Especially considering the day after I did all the shovelling it snowed heavily again!
