I am so sick of snow and cold. At least Saturday and Sunday were temperate and dry enough for outdoor riding--and if only two days in a week are going to be ride-able, I'm glad it was the weekend--but now we're right back in the slushy deep-freeze. It gets me down. Or possibly I just need a nap.

Used my new power meter for the first time this morning. I'm used to being able to see my cadence, HR and time all at once, so it'll take a bit of getting used to to only be able to see one at a time. I wish I could switch the speed display to show cadence. I also wish the unit recorded my max HR. I guess that will be recorded in the downloaded info, so that's fine. I'll adjust. And after I establish a baseline, my coach will have me train using the power output instead of my HR.

Should I get a fluid trainer? My knee is aching right now from a couple hours on the magnetic trainer this morning. [Riding outdoors doesn't cause this pain.] Would a fluid trainer be better? I have to decide by Thursday, if I want the team discount.

I DO need a nap. Yawn.
