Rode four hours yesterday, 3 outside and 1 on the trainer indoors. When I left the temperature was in the teens, and when I finally submitted to the cold it was even colder. There are certain temps that you just can't ride in, and the teens with single digit windchill is one of them. I dressed warm enough, but the real challenge was breathing. I got an instant "ice cream" headache the moment I stepped out the door. Not to mention the fact that I couldn't feel my face shortly after as well. It's freakin' cold!!!
The hour on the trainer was the longest in life! I hate riding indoors, but it was a necessity yesterday.
Today is a 5 hour ride. I'll go with my original plan to ride outside for an hour, inside for an hour, repeating this until the ride's done. Should be fun!
This is our new blog detailing our daily adventures, mountain bike racing, endurance sports, and maybe even some cooking (that's Anne's domain!). We will share our experiences with life, training, and most importantly, being a team-both in marriage and in our sport.
