Winter Training Continued

The Christmas holidays are here which means that I'm being more flexible with my training schedule this week. After completing the Christmas food shop I had a two hour window to get a ride in. It was pouring down outside so I opted to wear my waterproof jacket for the first tm in a long time. I headed off into the head wind to find some quiet roads to get some uninterrupted training in. The photo below shows what I look like after an hour of riding into a 15mph head wind with driving heavy rain, it adds a few years.

You can't beat the open road for a chance to recharge your mental batteries. The photo below is a favourite road of mine near Shipston-on-Stour on the way to Tysoe for peace and quiet.

Museum trips and panto are the order of the day for the next couple of days so I might be limited to turbo time in the garage which has it's own attractions - it's the only time I train with music, although I do struggle to stick to the endurance training when the Prodigy kicks in.
