Indoor Training

Our goal for 2010 is to try and participate in a cycling event at least once a month (during cycling season). Our first ride is in St. George in February. So Brad got us this great indoor trainer. It is took stinking cold (and slick) outdoors for riding, but now we have no excuse.

The indoor trainer has been great for Myles to learn to use the clipless pedals. He is hooked now, guess we know what he will be getting for his b-day :)

"It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of county you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle." Ernest Hemingway

People would save themselves a lot of blood if they would learn how to use clipless pedals on a trainer/spinbike!
