Winter is Slowly Ending

(Reader Reminder: Pics are clickable!)
We have had a couple weeks of really cold weather lately and one significant snowstorm. But we're getting that behind us now... weather will be in the low 50s tomorrow for the first time and those piles of dirty snow are disappearing fast now. We have continued to workout indoors twice a week in the Velo Garage and I've also been able to up the frequency and intensity of my core and upper body workouts. All of this has been productive and I have been able to see that in the power numbers I'm making on the trainer.


All in all, I 'm feeling really good thanks, no doubt, at least in part to the testosterone supplementation I've been on for five weeks. I am very, very happy with that.
We go an espresso machine for the Velo Garage, which has worked out very well for the Sunday morning sessions when I pick up fresh bagels and creme cheese.
I'm expecting to do about another month of indoor riding before the real outdoor season begins. I did get in an absolutely great outdoor ride last Friday in one of my favorite regional parks. There's a hill there that used to bully me and I like to go out there and challenge it periodically. Some day I will dance up it on my pedals... at lest that's my plan. Here's a look:
It was a good day  be alive!
My goal beginning now is to try for at least one good outdoor 
ride per week in addition to the indoor training.
