Turbo Man's Fitness Blog: The Turbo Bike Lives Again!

NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

The Turbo Bike Lives Again!

With yet more mild weather I was back in the garage tonight and uncovered the turbo bike. I fitted the tribars and re-attached the Tacx kit and plugged it in. I'm glad to say it all worked fine although I may need to tweak the position in the weeks ahead. But at least I have a viable alternative should the snow come again over the Christmas break.

And I've entered my first sportive for 2011 - very local: http://www.meonvalleyriser.co.uk/
