Training Headed into town for the weekly bunch ride, had a feeling that no-one would turn up today being easter and all that and guess what it was the right feeling. Anyway seeing as I made the effort I decided that I would ride around Paradise Valley then head around the back of the lake (haha) that was a good plan until my chain parted company. Anyway got 29km in.
29.08km, 1hr 04 45secs, Avg 26.9km/h, Max 49km/h, Heartrate Avg BPM 153, 14%in HZ, 12%in FZ, 73%in PZ, KCal 1108

Training Legs felt dreadful today, found out why they are hurting so much, I put the seat up on my bike on Wednesday and didn’t align the seat properly, (it’s a learning curve). Did 20mins on the mag trainer tonight, kept heartrate below 150BPM and cycled at a cadence of 90-100.
