I've been trying to get myself back in the groove for quite some time unfortunately. It has been a struggle. I have ridden the spin bike maybe a dozen times since the first of the year and did a shakedown ride on the FRT in January as well. A shakedown ride is merely a ride taken to find any issues with a bike thats been worked on. In this case a 1983 Miyata 610 that has been designated as a daily rider. The axle was bent on the left pedal and the hubs needed repacking as this bike is nearly 30 years old. Those issues have since been addressed. I like the Miyata.
After about a 2 week layoff I finally got a 30 minute spin in this morning. Only 30 minutes due to poor fitness at this time. There is a 60 mile gravel ride at the end of May that I would like to do. I have a long ways to go so I would like to build on that 30 minutes.
Spinning rides take place in the basement. Sometimes listening to CD's, other times listening to the radio. Today it was WXRT. The plan in my mind ride now is to repeat this workout tomorrow morning.
