The start of Training

Training has offically begun (if only in a very small way).

Richard set up his solo bike on a turbo trainer in the conservatory yesterday. For those who don't know a turbo trainer is a device that supports the rear wheel off the ground so that it is running on a roller. This has a device attached to alter the level of effort required to pedal.

While the evenings are dark, and the weather foul, Richard and Joules are going to encourage one another to spend time on the TT as regularly as possible to give us a head start when we are finally able to get out for real!

Photos to follow.

For the record Richard did about half an hour to check it was all running smoothly before the windows steamed up (even with the sky light open!) & he got bored. Need to put the radio in there!
