I've been able to ride outside a lot more this winter than in previous years, but I still log my share of trainer hours. This morning was a pre-dawn ride down in the basement. At least it was raining, so I don't feel like I missed out from not riding outside. My legs still felt like crap from back to back long rides on Sunday and Monday. The goal for this week is to accumulate another 700+ TSS points, while still being fresh enough to race on Saturday, so the trick is to train, but somehow gain strength as the week goes on. Today I rode for 1 hour at 90% of FTP. It wasn't comfortable, but I actually feel better now than I did yesterday.
