Spent 96 minutes riding the trainer last night. That equals two episodes of Breaking Bad. During that 96 minutes, I had two flat tires. On the trainer. I know.
Lemme 'splain. My road tubulars are shot. Like almost down to the casing shot. So I have been riding them on the trainer. Last night the rear finally gave up the ghost. So I grabbed my clinchers from the garage, which are currently acting as my spares for cyclocross, which meant either riding a 'cross tire on the trainer or swapping to a road tire. I swapped. And in my haste didn't check for a pinched tube. Which worked its way flat in about 20 minutes.
I had about 15 minutes left and ordinarily would have just called it a night. But here's the thing about Breaking Bad--it's so good that I had to finish the episode. And if I was going to finish, I may as well get more ride time. So I put in a new tube and kept pedaling. The only question is whether this is my secret to maintaining fitness over the winter, or if I will just get lazy and watch Breaking Bad without riding once cyclocross season ends. Place your bets.

Once you start skiing the trainer will get no love.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're right.
ReplyDeletePut Calville bay Classic on your schedule and you will have to stay on the bike.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Breaking Bad tip. Just finished the first episode.
ReplyDeleteFYI, I did 97 min on my trainer last night.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the middle of the second episode now, and it's proving too intense for me. I haven't had this much anxiety since high school.
ReplyDeleteRabid, just wait. It only gets better.
ReplyDeletetrainers are for the weak.
