Why Train?

Why not just ride? I’ve asked myself that question. I’m not totally sure why.

I just read “Talent vs. Training” by Molly Cameron. I can relate. Why train so hard? I don’t know…. I like a challenge. I want to find my limit. How fast? How far?

Don’t Die Wondering. I think that was a marketing slogan from Vision back in the 80’s. I still like it though.

I finally got a photo of the towel rider. I hadn’t seem him in at least a year. He rides a Cannnondale F-1000 down the middle of the road while sitting on a towel. I wonder what his logic is for riding the yellow line.

Stretching during warm-up weakens muscles

By as much as 30%. I still try and stretch out a little after hard rides.

How long could you survive chained to a bed with a velociraptor?

1 minute, 16 seconds of terror.
