About me: 13 years off the bike, just getting back on. 37 years old, good shape (i.e., do not need to lose any obvious weight).
My goals: I'd like to be able to ride short TTs late this year, and a bit of track such as miss-n-outs and points races, etc.
Competing priorities: Normal job, but I'm usually home by 4pm. Strength training 2 days/week. Typical 'life' distractions, although no kids.
I'm riding a Colnago Dream Plus, C-Chorus, etc. Fit seems about right, although I need to fine tune it a bit more.
I have about 200 miles under my belt over the last two months, and am thinking about adding some structure to my riding. But the question is 'what structure?' The only reason I'd want to ride more than 20 miles is for training purposes or to say I did it (I rode 50s routinely as a kid, but somehow now endurance stuff is less attractive -- maybe it's because I'm not comfy on the bike again yet).
Ideas?
