Someone once told me the best thing to do after a long tough ride is another ride – something about lactic acid flushing. Whatever. Seems to me that a Recovery Ride is about letting your legs know you still trust them. I need to make more of an effort to ride nearly daily.
Since I’m having troubles in the new house getting proper resistance when switching out rear wheels, I went with 16 teeth on the heavy bike. My old Uphill Configuration but I planned on a very flat ride just to keep my legs confident. So naturally I ended up taking Frisbee Golf Hill four times in 32 miles – & each climb felt wonderful.
