Trainer Ride Tour of Flanders

Today is Monday April 7 2025 and yesterday i rode the indoor bicycle trainer.

It was the only ride i had time for, but it was better than nothing.

Plus the Tour of Flanders was on tv so i pedaled for one hour and forty five minutes while i watched Tadaj Pogacar inflict pain on everyone else.

The indoor bicycle trainer is kind of fun because it measures watts. Should i be paying attention to watts? On this particular ride i averaged something like 87 watts. I have done a bit of googling about how many watts i should average on a 3 hour mountain bike race, it sounds like i also need to figure out my FTP and what not.

But that's not my style, i'm not a numbers guy. I probably should be if i'm serious about my cycling goals this year but i guess my overriding goal is to have fun. So as long as im doing that i'm winning.

I will ride my bike.
