Brisk Native Journey – BionicOldGuy

As we speak ought to have been my Tuesday group trip however rain was forecast so we didn’t do one. I rode anyway and obtained all equipped for the rain nevertheless it turned out to not arrive until after my trip was over. I managed to sneak in a brisk 35 mile trip in fairly good climate.

As we speak was “laborious” day on the bike so after driving at a fast however manageable “zone 2” tempo for a bit over 90 minutes I threw in some quicker lengthy intervals to enhance lactate threshold after which some fast sprints with long recovery in between, then completed with a neater cooldown. That is what I’ve been doing for laborious day not too long ago, and it feels difficult however nice. Within the phrases of the good working coach Invoice Bowerman, a very good exercise ought to go away you feeling “exhilarated not exhausted” and this one does.

I did all this on my Corsa recumbent within the configuration with 20″ wheels back and front. I’ve been actually having fun with this, it makes for a compact however quick little bike. It reminds of the primary snug recumbent I ever had, the Rans Rocket, which is a traditional that’s sadly by no means made. The Corsa is comparable however lighter and quicker.
