I think this is a really important factor to take into account when adding resistance training to your cycling.
I have to work really hard on maintaining my strength as i'm not gifted in holding onto muscle at all. My lower back is my weak point (in fact, I think RPM identified this at a past track session) and i really have to reduce my volume of training when lifting. The difference in fatigue between cycle training and resistance training is really eye opening.
It seems like you are achieving a good balance BMMF, and are certainly aware of what needs to be addressed.
