I have reflected (spot the nurse) on what i want out of the blog and what i am willing to put into it and i think that more posts is not the way forward. what i plan to do now is go for once a month and then just share some rambling reflections on how the training is going and what events are coming up.
What i will also do is link in some snaps of my training week and if i ever get a full green week i might share that with you too. Below is week one of the 1/2 plan i used for Weymouth and so I plan to use it again for Norway. This cunning little plan starts officially on Monday so that is when this all gets serious.
The aim is of course to stick to this plan religiously but i have a feeling that with the way my life is looking over the next few months that may be difficult. Lets be honest i haven't got a great history on that front.On a brighter note I have a new toy, its my race bike for both Norway and Maryland. In the end after much soul searching and budgeting (Lizzy said I had to choose one bike not 3) i have got my Wilier Cent1 Air. Its black and red and white and goes like the clappers, a little slower when i ride it granted but it is a dream to ride. Its Ultegra Di2 and did i mention it's fast?
it looks so good i am going to share a picture with you all. You must admit she is pretty.

I also was a bit sensible, not very, but a bit and got a serious bike fit done for both road use and in a TT position. This was done by the very nice Jon Cooper at http://www.yorkcycleworks.com/ , though every time I went in I ended up buying more stuff.
The plan is to get this bad boy set up so I can get all sexy and aero on it and still walk at the end...... I mean run of course.
Right I'm off to be produtive now for a bit and i shall post again at the start of next month.
Missing you all already.
