Another stint on the bike trainer.. 11 miles in 35 minutes…

My sister and brother in law got a Schwinn bike trainer. So I did 30 minutes and just over 10 miles on it. It’s in the main room so everyone was watching me or playing super heroes! Much better than the basement.

At -5f air temp this morning I thought it was time to break out the bike.

Ok, so I setup my trainer in the basement last night and rode it this morning! Don’t worry, I’m not quite that crazy. Well… at least not going to try it in the dark before work. So I rode about 8.4 miles while watching some TED talks!

My basement is kind of in a transitional mess right now. Moving things around to get a better workout area setup. So I accidentally set the trainer up underneath some of the pipes for the boiler which means that I have a little heater right above me that I definitely don’t need! I’ll need to move that soon!

I couldn’t decide what to do, so I did about 30 minutes on the bike trainer in the basement! Exciting stuff right? I did finally replace the batteries in the computer and sensor so I got about 10 miles in.

On the 6th Snow Day of 2019 I hit the trainer in the basement for an hour. I need to replace the batteries in the computers so I can get at least a rough distance estimate for the rides. I followed the ride with a 5×5 front squat. I don’t have a rack so I have to clean the bar first. I did 45#, 95#, 100#, 105# and 110#.

An hour on the trainer is no fun!

Followed in the afternoon with snow blowing and shoveling 8 inches of snow!
