I'm gonna go against the habit of a lifetime, and not just take the piss but offer some advice (don't say anything, I'm upset enough).
As well as all the good training advice above it's very important to have a good healthy diet as well.
If you're really serious about it best to consult a professional who can give you a weekly diet plan. Either through your GP or maybe they offer that service in your Gym?
If you're doing heavyweights in the Gym the best thing you can do is balance this with sessions on the bike (as is in your general planning). If you're doing heavyweights I'm guessing you wanna bulk up on muscle. And as you've found out this does nothing for stamina. You can't expect to completely offset this with time on a bike. So you'll need to compromise and decide if you want lean and mean or walnuts in a sack look (Wiggins or Hoy). Either way time spent on the bike will be beneficial. But Pistaboy sounds like the best bet for detailed advice and training plan.
So, Get on your bike and ride!
