WHICH DAYS SHOULD WE FOCUS ON?
FOR MOST OF YOU, 98%, this is going to be gamechanger. Of course, if you've been hanging out her for a bit, it's not new. But, I'm willing to bet...
... many still don't believe me, and ya never tried it somewhere else.

But, that is not the most important benefit of this method...
... this is the most important, by far.
Building your fitness this way is the only way to sustain cycling for life.
We lose to many to burn out, because they ride too hard all the time.
Way too many lost.
Guess where else this works well?
If you're paid for results, and more and more of us are...
... this strategy of mostly easy days with a few focus days...
... is also a winner for bread winning.

The big focus days, of course, are races.
Nothing better than hanging out at the race with the team, around the canopy.
Yeah, we make canopies too.
