Cycling Fitness / Training Advice

@onyerbike Trainerroad outside will be a waste of money. Trainingpeaks is the best all round and you can plan sessions in it if you can't remember interval lengths when you are out on the bike.

Thanks for the tips. I thought TR>TP as TR provides plans. Don’t you have to pay for plans or build your own plans in TP?

@skinny But you also have to ask yourself why you ride a bike, if it's for fun, then spend the money on a good trip instead…I always like MAP tests to set zones/see fitness.

Gaining fitness has now become a new component of why I ride a bike. So the PM is part of exploring that. I would rather spend PM money on a trip to Girona, but that’s looking rather unlikely in tier 4, so I think a PM could be a great way to have some fun close to home. I’m guessing you could do a MAP test outdoors?

@andyp Thanks for those segments. I’ve planned rides to check them out.
