I genuinely don’t think it would be possible for me to have less interest in the Tour than I do this year. I don’t really know why. I tried to force it the other day by reading some tech articles on Cycling News, which usually gets me going, but nope. Just meh. I’m not hugelyContinue reading “Le Tour”

Its the second day of 2022
And I haven’t done a single ride. I haven’t really done a run or walk either. Gonna need to remedy this tomorrow.
The Beast of Provence -Ventoux
I love when the Tour hits Mont Ventoux. As long as I can remember it’s just such an iconic stage. I can remember seeing photos of Eddie powering up it when I was a kid, as well as Lance, and Froome and Contador. chapeau to Wout van Aert for his victory today. It’s just aContinue reading “The Beast of Provence -Ventoux”

Thoughts on training…
I am in need of a reset as to my training methodology. A reset taking into count my kind of new reality. The ‘ol leg is telling me we may never be the same again. I do believe that while it may not be the same, it will be as good or better in aContinue reading “Thoughts on training…”
I’ve become a bit of a wrench…

Finally some long overdue bike content…
The oldest boy and I spent some time this weekend setting up an older Cannondale V500 for a friend who’s daughter will use it as secondary transportation at college. The bike was apparently picked up at a pawn shop a few years ago, and then languished in the garage as a well intentioned attempt toContinue reading “Finally some long overdue bike content…”
Carson
This is the second time I’ve done this workout, the first time I skipped the coaching notes and did it all at 90+ rpm. Tonight I listened to ol Chad and did it at 75 with the standing drills. It was harder for sure, but still no where near as hard as some of theContinue reading “Carson”
2018, not the year I wanted, but the year I deserved…
I spent quite a few years (most of my adult life) not taking care of myself properly. That is not to say I didn’t exercise, actually quite the opposite, I drove myself harder than I should have, much harder. I pushed through numerous injuries, I didn’t listen to physical therapists, I blew off treatment. InContinue reading “2018, not the year I wanted, but the year I deserved…”
Saturday Night Funtime
I have to say that I feel kinda bad about wearing my “Belgian the fuck up”socks for an indoor ride, but it is winter in Texas, so suck it. I also bought a heater for the pain cave. 🙂 It’s about 37 degrees here, which is cold enough to be legit cold, but not enoughContinue reading “Saturday Night Funtime”
