Yesterday’s wind was pretty brutal. I was going to piggy back a threshold workout on monday with the race from sunday, but the rain came and I decided to do some work on my other bikes. So I opted to head out the door last night and get in a crusher. I was actually feeling [...]

Spinning in the Rain

I’m Spinning in the rain, just spinning in the rain…Well, the weather here in Upstate NY is at it’s usual finest. Luckily, or perhaps unluckily, the snow is gone. But, ma nature isn’t being extremely kind. Yesterday it was in the mid 40′s and wet, gusty and rainy. I had to head out of town [...]
