Hey all.
I have been mtn biking for about 6 years and took up cycling a couple of years ago and I love it. I just got my first computer for my road bike and am wondering what I should be focusing on for training purposes. Should I be focusing on keeping a steady cadence or just keeping my average speed high?
I'm not training for anything in particular just trying to stay active, enjoy the scenery and possibly lose a couple of pounds along the way.
Thanks!
