I just read the funny thread, Training for the Athens Olympics.... I am 33... 18 years ago, I was very interested in biking... and football... well the 2 don't really go together... I played college football, then got into Mtn biking and worked in and managed a bike store in the midwest for a couple of years. I haven't done much in the way of endurance riding in 8 years. I am currewntly building up an OCLV 110 frame with Campy Chorus.... SHould be a sweet ride...
I am wondering what kind of avg speed pro riders avg on flat days.... say on the Tour...
I failed to ask my question... I am building my road bike gradually as it hits the wallet a little to hard otherwise.... What kind of training/riding should I be doing on my mtn bike right now, to put myself in a position to actually be able to RIDE my road bike when it is built? As far as my road bike goals... at my age and other activities in my life, it is for enjoyment and personal fitness... I will be club riding only.....
