The high here in Fort Collins, Colorado, has been hovering around 5F for the last few days so I've been riding indoors.

I highly recommend the SufferFest videos. If you have to ride indoors, at least they make it entertaining (in a painful sort of way). They aren't cheap - in fact, I bet their sales would increase if they dropped their prices in half - but they are pretty good for what they are, and they keep my entertainment level up.. and no, I have no affiliation with them... just a mostly happy, very sweaty, somewhat exhausted customer (wish it was $5/video and not $12 though).

Anyway, 14 miles on Sat. on the trainer, then 12 miles two nights ago, and now 15 miles tonight.

Tomorrow is "Winter bicycle to work day" here in Fort Collins... so I'm vaguely considering bicycling my frozen butt to work... It's supposed to get as high as 36C (2C)tomorrow... practically balmy. But all the snow in the bicycle lane is a bigger concern than the temperature.

14+12+15+42799=42,840

[OILFIELDTRASH]

50 miles that were much tougher than they should have been. Took maybe a month off and it showed (work and cold weather didn't allow me to ride).
total 42937

 

[pm]

Rode 11.1 miles on the indoor trainer on Friday.
Rode 9.6 miles on the indoor trainer yesterday. Got the highest heartrate I've ever recorded indoors (192 beats/minute) and sustained it for 7 agonizing minutes. Not sure I believe my heartrate monitor though.
Rode 17.1 miles today over lunch outdoors on a lovely and almost warm ride to the "Windsor Wall".

42937+11.1+9.6+17.1 = 42,975 miles
