Trainer rides are so boring!

And coach Troy is a sadist!

Spent yesterday afternoon trying to get through one of the Spinervals DVD’s and by the time I got to the one-legged drills my quads were about to blow up. It was all I could do to get the pedals to turn. But if Nicole and I plan on doing the Charlotte Motor Speedway Time Trial series we need to get into shape. The first event is May 5th. That just isn’t very far away.

1st tandem ride of the year!

Woo Hoo! We finally made it out on the tandem this year. It has bees quite a while since I have been on the bike and written about it on this blog. Wasn’t yesterday a beautiful day, nearly 70° here in Matthews. We managed to get a good start around 12:15 pm. About an hour later and 12 miles covered we were back home. It wasn’t much of a ride but there were some up and downhill stretches on the route.
