January has traditionally been a slow month for me and cycling, Cold, wet weather doesn’t appeal to me. I usually end up riding only on the weekends where I can utilized the warmth of the sun to it its maximum.
I was hoping to get the Wahoo Fitness KICKR PowerTrainer to use indoors after work but as of yet it is still not available. Rumors are that it wont be available until March! By then why bother. Not much info about it other than it’s power based trainer and you have to take your rear wheel off and attach it. I was looking forward to crank out some good intervals while watching Battlestar Galatica on Netflix, but I finished the series and the trainer is not available, so blah. There went that idea.
The good thing about January is the days are starting to get longer. That means getting back to a schedule of riding regularly and trying to get rid of the winter flab that I put on and then some.
Time to ride!
I can identify with you. Here in Houston the month has been far too wet and cold. So far I rode 70 miles for the month. Today looks promising if the temperature can get to 60 degrees.
Hey Rick,
I think I’ve ridden about the same amount as you have. I should be able to head out today after I take a nap lol
The temperature made it to 60 and on to 68 so I went for a ride of 28 miles. I hope to ride again on Sunday.
Hey Ray, it’s Paul from dailymile..the Tex guy in Korea! Just wanted to say I still read and love ur blog. January does suck here too. Sub-freezing for another month or so. I’m sure I will be bitching about the heat before too long though! Anyway, safe riding and I look forward to the next post
!
Hey Paul,
Good to hear from you. I was wondering what happened to you. You have some interesting riding locals over there. Keep on pedaling and thanks for reading!
