The Training Grounds

February 11th, 2010

I’ve been keeping my road bike in the trainer lately and commuting on the mountain bike. That is until yesterday when my pedal and crank had a falling out – more on that in another post. February training in Seattle isn’t the best but thanks to some drainage issues I now have a room in the basement all to myself. Check it out:

Note the fancy new drainage system where the wall meets the floor.

The stool in front is where the laptop goes to play the training DVD, it’s a nice setup really and the wintery breeze with the windows open keeps everything nice and cool. If you’ve never ridden on a trainer I’ll have you know it’s very hot since you aren’t actually moving meaning there is no air moving over you.
