The basics of training regimes and how to ride a bike fast/efficiently have been documented at great length on t'InterWeb and elsewhere - people disagree over minor nuances, but the messages are mostly the same,evolving gently over the decades.
What I still enjoy reading are those bizarre sounding ideas that you might never have thought of, but have a grain of sense in them. At first you think "NUTTER!" ... but then you start thinking if you could use the idea, perhaps modified to your own riding/schedule.
This was kicked off by something I just read on ultracycling.com:
"During my first season of ultracycling, I spent many mornings on my trainer eating breakfast while cycling. This taught my stomach to deal with eating substantial meals while performing an aerobic activity."
Any more for any more?
