Hello,

I started this blog just for the hell of it after reading a few blogs from fellow cyclist friends of mine. Their blogs got me interested in what I might have to say and how often I might say it. These posts will not be strictly about cycling, that was just a title for the blog that came to mind as I was filling out the necessary info......I might change it later. Some of my interests that might get written about on this blog are in no particular order....Cycling, Photography, Food, Working Out ( as opposed to cycling), movies, & trips that I have taken or might take in the future.
Thanks for checking in. If I write something you don't agree with, that's okay. These are my thoughts, not yours.

DAY 3 OF 3

Workout: 1 Hour Indoor Trainer
Weight:    285.6

 Back on the indoor trainer today. First time in a couple of weeks. Felt good to be back on the bike. Did one of my favorite, self created workouts. 10 minute warm-up and then the work. 4 repeats of 6 minute interval with 5 minutes of recovery and then cool down for about 10 minutes. The intervals were done to the song "Kings & Queens" by 30 Seconds to Mars and the recovery was done to "What a Wonderful World" by Israel Kamakawiwo"ole. Two cool songs one tough workout. Didn't quite work quite as hard as I have in the past on this one, but that will come in time.
     I am thinking that a good goal for getting back on the bike beyond training rides might be the Tour de Fire 2011 on May 7th. This is one tough ride that has the potential for being very hot at the finish. I did much of this route a little over a year ago and it ended up being 104 at the end of the ride. There is a 60 or 70 mile option and that is what I will be attempting. Definitely not the century ride.I will hopefully get back on the road for training rides in early march which will give me two months off the indoor trainer to get used to the roads again.
