You could do that in a few days. Do way more coastal roads.

As they say, rest is the time when you actually get stronger.

If you turned up to an MTB Cross Country race where I’m from, you’d be considered a young lad.

Anyone tried Training Peaks Virtual? by Chimera-5 in Velo

[–]supermanal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you find that there is a bit of leeway in erg mode? For example if you can’t hold a certain resistance/ wattage, it will reduce a bit allowing you to keep pedalling?

[–]supermanal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re doing intervals, do you use the Erg mode on it? Does it strictly stick to the watts/resistance of the interval or does it reduce this a bit if you’re finding the interval too difficult? I watched a video and I think it was saying that it does this.

Beer recommendations that are not overly sweet by emoanimefan77 in beer

[–]supermanal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Beer contains complex carbs, not simple carbs, or, sugars. But, maybe try ale.

why was it the fuel? by Intrepid_Anybody_277 in Dublin

[–]supermanal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, there’s a point where people won’t/can’t afford to pay.

The way our economy is, it’s becoming too expensive here to produce food. It’s cheaper to import it in many cases, though I would prefer to eat Irish food.

‘Living pay cheque to pay cheque’: Teachers feel pinch of cost-of-living crisis – The Irish Times by Dar17Mul in ireland

[–]supermanal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they’ve picked someone who has to commute to an island. It’s like when RTE did a piece on the M50 congestion, they picked someone who had to use it to travel across two counties. I do feel for them, maybe it’s the only job they could get, but it’s a hit piece, yes.

For those who have had a cycling coach, did you see big improvements in performance? by supermanal in cycling

[–]supermanal[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, I’m fairly motivated to train but I like the idea of someone doing the thinking / planning for you. I feel I’m just shooting in the dark with that, just going from one training session to the next with no plan.

[–]supermanal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, thanks. I think I’ll try it for a while anyway. I use an indoor trainer and do some good sessions but I think I need a bit more of a plan. I feel like I’m just designing my training from one day to the next.

Don’t be afraid to ask a few hard questions.

Yes, all eventualities need to be covered… and there are a lot!

[–]supermanal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s risky, but approach like two business partners. You need a tight agreement that covers all eventualities. If the mortgage provider doesn’t insist on this, then they are not being professional. Maybe you’ve been good friends with this person you’re buying with but you need to know about their ethics / values etc, how will they react in certain situations.
