I know where Cliff is coming from. He wants to new able to hang with those faster riders. That's where the fun is for him, not just to go out and pedal. Once upon a time, I was having lots of fun racing and was in great shape on the bike. Now, 50's around the corner, so keeping up with the younger guy who ride daily is almost out of the question with riding only once or two days weekly. I just can't hang with the big dogs(I finish the ride with them but I am unable to stay out front) and want to so baldly. When I do go out, I kill myself and have the discipline to over power my brain and tell my legs to not give up. I am not sure if its all that fun? By doing that, I still go to my training ride on Saturdays. That's where the young guys who train for races are. That's where the fun is.
Yep, breaking something is no fun. I broke my collarbone and three ribs early this year riding in the rain. Put me out for a almost two weeks.
Vash, you follow those guys and keep doing it. One day, you will get it.
