Day One

Day one, training starts today.  I’ve been easing into the sport of cycling over the past 5 months and now I’m ready to crank things up a notch.  So here’s to hoping for an injury-free season and 10 months of consistent training. 

The pros seem to average something around 6 hours per stage, so my goal will be to keep my times around 8 hours.  I’ll be happy if I can keep things within about 30% of the pros, especially since I anticipate having to ride alone for most of the race. 

Today’s ride was a nice easy 1 hour/30km ride out around UBC: https://www.trainingpeaks.com/sw/OHISKY2N247PDQFOI4TXVY3Q6Y
