  1. Hi Hubbers,

     

    Could I have a problem if I changed two of my midweek rides (normally 90 minutes each) to 3,5hrs each and still do my regular long rides on Sat and Sun. This would take my training hours for the week to approximately 16hrs. I am in SubVets this Spring (first time), and would like to be stronger and leaner rider.

     

    Those long mid week rides I'd do at 60% to 75% HR, so it won't be hard training at all.

     

    Is this too much training?

     

    Training looks like this: M-rest, T-3.5hrs 65%HR, W- 90mins spin, T-3.5hrs 65%HR, F-rest, S-3hr fast pace ride, S-3.5 hr rollers.

     

    Is this too much slow riding? Or too much riding?

     

    Is there anybody riding as much as this or more (non-pro riders that is)????

     

    Comments anybody?

     

    Ciao

     

     

    Welcome to MY world.

     

    Thats the kind of riding in MY week, I just keep it shorter and more often in the Week.

    Weekends I go BIG, 6 Hours for the Saturday and 9 Hours for the Sunday. 20 hours for the Week.

  2. Eeek - that's rather embarrassing. Got to love lazy journalists.

     

    Anyway - what's the fixation with body fat %, surely there are more important numbers like power at LT etc. Endurance riders will tend to have more fat than sprint athletes - it's our source of energy.

    Now I am going to flame you.

     

    Endurance riders will tend to have more Fat???

    You give me Any distance, bring it on.

    I will have my normal Drink on the bike and thats IT.

    No extras for me. I am not shy to put down the Hammer.

     

    When you do see me, you will agree, I am very Lean. I am still cutting every day.

  3. Watwou, roadies bang vir reen? Ek het 100km gedoen laas Maandag in die reen. Was deurnat en half verkluim toe ek by die huis gekom het, maar ek het geoefen. :D

    (of dalk is ek net dom ;) )

     

    Damn Just when I get the night OFF.

     

    I wanted so much to come and join you Guys and Gals.

  4. I cycle any where. Have been the last 7 odd years.

    If it is to go to the Shop or to Work.

    My commute is 20km one way, either 09h00 in the morning if I have a long day or 16h00 in the afternoon(short day). Returning home at 02h00 in the morning.

     

    I carry a day pack / Camel pack with me and take a fresh uniform every two days in to work.

     

    Lights, I have found a light fitted to the front of your helmet is a lot more visible than a handle bar mounted light.

     

    Joke.

     

    It was raining recently, that heavy storm last month. I stopped at the petrol station, I had my Camel pack covered in its raincover(yellow).

    Here this Call out Electrician comes and asks if that is a Parachute that I am carring???

  5. Thanks for Helping me save my Data Bundle / Airtime.

     

    I was using my Cellphone to Google and Post for the last Two weeks, as my Laptop was also down for repair and only got returned Yesterday. 

     

    Thanks Matt
