All last winter my thing on the bike was to set up in front of the tube and watch the presidential nomination race unfold, spinning easily at 17 miles per hour or thereabouts. Even doing that for two or three hours at a time, that'll get you only so far. I just wasn't working hard enough on the bike. This year? Working harder. Tonight, I rode 30 miles in 90 minutes, with 25 of the miles a slight but persistent incline. That was a hell of a workout. I can't ride like that every time, but I need to do one bike workout like that every week—in addition to an interval session, and a long ride. Bike, bike, bike. It's all about the bike.
