  • Oh that crazy thing called a trainer

    So… I finally got back on the trainer again yesterday. I did 4 miles and called it quits. It’s so boring and dull. I watched a podcast, but still got bored. Suggestions? -Seth

  • I actually got back on the trainer today. Though short

    So I actually got back on the trainer today after a two week or so break. Man, I hate that thing. It’s a torture device, but I know that if I keep at it during the cold months it’ll pay off in the warm ones.

  • Need To Get Back On The Trainer

    So I haven’t been on the trainer in weeks. I really need to get back on it asap, I’m getting fat. I know I have to eat right as well, but exercise is important. Just have to find the time to get all sweaty. Haha.

  • Early Morning On The Trainer

    I thought I’d give getting up early and jumping on the trainer a try. Ugh, that sucked. It sure is hard getting up at 6:20 am and going down on the trainer to start your day. I could only eek out 2 miles before having enough. I guess that’s better than nothing.

  • Got a Trainer and Loving The Option

    So I just bought a used  trainer for my bike. It’s going to be great for the winter when I can’t get out riding. Since it’s “new,” I’ve been using it the past few days to get the hang of it. It’s not the same as riding a bike, but it’s not bad though. It still…

  • The Season Might Be Over, But There Is More Cycling To Do

    Many people call this time the off season for cycling. It’s starting to get cold and cyclists are moving indoors onto their trainers. But in fact, this is the prefect time to be riding outside. The leaves are changing, the air is brisk, the riding is good when you’re not over heating with the heat…

  • Nice Cool Ride In October

    Today’s ride was a solid one. 12.9 miles good riding and a nice bite in the air. I definitely feel that all my cycling is making me stronger and healthier, which I need since I tend to eat quite a bit on the weekends. Especially at birthday parties. I’m still testing the Garmin Edge 520…

  • The Fall Is Here And So Is The Wind

    So we’re due to get a hurricane or a tropical storm in the next day or so. That explains the amount of wind out there. My God it’s windy. Today I ended up just doing a circuit for 4 miles around the neighborhood. Wish I could have done more, but something is better than nothing.…

  • Look What Came In The Mail Today!

    I’m lucky enough that companies send me stuff to test out and review. The latest goody that I got to test and try out is the Garmin Edge 520 cycling computer and GPS. I just got it today and hooked it up. I took it out for a quick spin and so far it’s great.…

  • Quick Ride Today. Fall Is Definitely In The Air.

    Today I went out for a short 4.6 mile ride. I felt like I needed to get back on the bike, since I barely did any riding last week and none this weekend. Fall is in the air and I want to get my outside riding in before it gets too cold. Here’s my quick…
