Post from Joe Friel's blog

Joe Friel

A few weeks ago I suggested to Markus Zimmer, the owner of the Bicycle Ranch bike shop in Scottsdale, Ariz. where I shop that the store’s Saturday ride should include a “base” group in addition to it’s A-, B- and C-ability grouped rides. I usually ride with the Bs and occasionally with the As. This is only in the spring and fall. During the summer I am in Boulder, Colo. I’m also in Scottsdale during the winter but almost never ride with the group then because the A and B rides are basically mini-races. That’s great when I’m preparing to race. read more »

Core training

I did some core, stability, strength training today but other than that zero time on the bike or run this week.  I did get in the pool Tuesday but not really worth mentioning.  Planning on riding with BR guys turkey day.  Riding with AZ Masters Friday and Sunday.  Saturday I will be at Bicycle Ranch at 730am come out for a great 40+ mile ride.
