I decided that I am sick and tire of riding in the clouds cold. Perhaps the one day of sunshine we enjoyed yesterday soiled me, but I could not force myself out into the cold today.

So, I rode the trainer. I download and played “The Hunted” from Sufferfest.com. While the music is a bit too new for me (just who are these bands anyway?), I did enjoy the workout. In addition to the usual instructions (five minutes at 7 of 10), the workout has a storyline and video from ProTour races. Yes, a bit of a hack, but fun none the less.

The workout was tough – my average power was the highest of any trainer workout this off season.
