5k run at lunch
DG. I changed the batteries in the chest strap and the HR monitor worked. I benchmarked it with my Oregon scientific. My heart rate is pretty low. It rarely goes over 168 except on a steep grade. When I go running with my friends I am usually 10bpm lower than they are. On a long climb my legs give out first. I hope that the tacx will help me build/train the muscle mass i need to improve my power to weight ratio. I am not pushing to hard at the moment as i don't want to stress my back. Mostly I hope it will stop me from putting on any weight.
I finally found a serial to usb connector for my Garmin 201, so now I don't have to use my son's laptop. I uploaded my data to google earth for some lovely satellite imagery of my rides.
Some men keep mistresses, the basement peloton keep their old bikes. Drove my wife to work and took advantage of the trip to take my old karbo zaccheria for a ride (my Kastle is attached to the tacx). Pumped the tires and poured some singer sewing machine oil over the chain and away
