Back in the saddle

Sorry for my absence. My schedule has been packed with work related obligations and some travel so I didn't get a chance to blog. To pick up where I left off, I managed a 2 hour ride on Thursday evening and then a 1 hour ride early Friday morning before heading to Toronto for the weekend.

Today, my plan was to finally do my field test for the TCP. So I commenced the warmup protocol and was ready to go when the Power Tap funked out again. Now I'm irritated. I need to figure out why it seems to lose the signal from the hub even though I cleared the data and even resorted to restoring the factory defaults. I may have to call the helpline but I'm annoyed. So I decided to sit on for 90 minutes and ride at the upper end of my aerobic zone.

So my goal over the next ten days is to do some good quality rides on the trainer. Though I'd like to start the TCP, I have to plan for the possibility that the Power Tap issue won't be resolved so I'm going to go with a traditional training plan for now coupled with tempo and some hard efforts.

Anyway, I feel a little unstructured right now. I hope that I'll be able to get on the bike 5-6 days a week at least until the Power Tap issue can be resolved. It's a little disorienting right now that I can't get on the TCP so I have to make do given the challenge.

Alright, more in my next.
