It's that time of year...

Clouds rolling in, crisp air biting at my lungs, leaves changing colors, darkness setting in around 6 or 7 in the evening…it is apparent fall is near and so begins the off-season training. Luckily the rain has been scant and there have been no hints of snow yet so riding outside is still feasible and I can avoid the monotony of riding the trainer…for now.

The off-season training so far has consisted of focusing on volume, a few group rides, riding to the mountain, and a few specifics here and there. The legs are feeling great so far and I have goals that will hopefully lead to a great ‘09 season.

Now is also a good time to for me try and keep the blog updated and show the progress during my off-season.
