How did you structure your training?
How did you structure your training? (noticed your intervals post the other day) Have been off the bike for a few weeks when I should have been desperately cramming in rides to try and survive the Kielder 100 so think I need to try and be a bit clever as well as riding lots. So where did you start making a programme, book, website, trainer...? Or is it all from that "Time Crunched Cyclist" book you recommended, and I still havent got my hands on...

Yes I'm following The Time Crunched Cyclist, experienced competitor plan. Steadystate intervals tomorrow with under/over threshold intervals on Thurs, great for learning to tolerate the pain.

The author is really approachable/responsive to questions on it.
I use a fluid turbo trainer with a heart rate monitor for the interval sessions, really good as to increase the load all I have to do is take the bike up thru the gears. But I'll be out on the trails on Sunday according to the plan for this week.
Borrowed a turbo trainer but really need to make more/better use of it. Right, time to get off the internet for a bit though, thanks for the link, think I am about to ask for (another) early birthday present :-)
