just went through it and found that it was a good read and learned quite a bit from it. made me want to start racing, even though i bought it for the training portion.
i'm basically a cycling newbie, so i can't fully evaluate this book, but i just started the trainer program (while the snow's on the ground... i know some of you guys cycle in god-awful weather, but i'd like to avoid my nose freezing off). i've seen some mojor improvements in about 4 weeks of the 12-week program. improved spin, less fatigue, more enjoyment and less pain. i'd recommend it.
i don't know about the upcomming season, but i may try to get into racing next.
