It is almost time to start the 2011 race season. A few things have really changed for my training. I started teaching InCycle @ West Seattle Cycle University. I teach back to back classes on Thursday nights which allows me to be on the bike for about 2.5 hours. If you don't know InCycle is the best indoor cycling program out there. Here are some highlights you won't find at any other indoor cycling class.
-Proven training program tailored to any level by wattage
-Coaches live for you every class
-Environment of motivation
-Accountability
-Inspiration and education in every class
Better than a Spinning Class because:
-Your bike - Your Fit - Wattage - Cycling Coaches - Video - Bike Shop - Experts - Inspirational environment - Repair - Education - Trackable Progress - Fun

The road race team changed a little bit over the winter. We lost a couple guys to another team. Which happens I guess but it was a bummer to lose them. The benefit now is that we have some buddies on other teams which will help us in trying to initiate some break away's during races. We have also added a few folks to the team so thats been good. Shawn Harrington and I will be back as Team Captains for the Cat 4 team and hopefully we will be able to get some guys upgraded to Category 3 to help out our man Joel.
Our Team rides on Saturday's have been filled with alot of rain and a few technical issues. Here is Chad fixing his chain the first time it broke.
Come to find out he had a faulty Ultegra chain that had 13 broken links. Thankfully nobody got hurt when his chain broke.
Once again Custom Smoothie is helping the road team this year with all our smoothie needs. The Lean and Mean Lite HOT is probably the best thing EVER! If you haven't tried it you should.
My pants and shoe covers were black. I had to throw the shoe covers away after this ride. Pretty nasty.
The team is heading up to Sequim this Sunday to pre ride the race course in anticipation of the Tour de Dung #1 & #2 in March. Can't wait for the season to start. Its so close but so far away.
