Baby, it’s cold outside. With the cold and wind, and rain and short days, what is a cyclist to do to keep that hard earned fitness level up? Recently, I queried a variety of the Highland Rim Bicycle Club members to get their secret for staying fit over the winter. The findings have inspired me, and I hope they will inspire you as well.
Before riding in the Christmas Parade I asked, 10-year old, Levi Dykes what he does in the off-season to keep his bike fitness. Levi looked at me in a quizzical way and then said, “I ride the trainer all year.” With Levi there is no off-season! What discipline! He likes Zwift, a computer generated training program.
