The season is over. Time to plan for the next one. My aims are to get my weight down, and my competitive distance up. I'd like to do a 25 next year and a LEJOG.
So far I have two things lined up - other commitments notwithstanding.
1. the tuesday night ride - chaingang for about 20 miles. Harder if I take turns on the front, easier if I just sit in.
Add a hill at the end that I get dropped on every time.
2. The Thursday night ride - long hill climb, circuit of about 21 miles with a sprint at the end.
3. Periodic ride/run to work. Ride will be about 15 hilly miles.
These are the regular rides that get me out and riding.
I need to do some stuff at weekends, longer rides of 2-3 hours, but what else should I be doing? Base speed is poor, leg speed is poor, time is difficult when you are not a selfish git and want to spend some time with the family.
