Cycling Training Motivation
The problem I have is not the actual training part, but rather the
motivation to actually get on my bike. Im comfortable in my kit and on the bike I can't get enough. I just need that push to start getting ready for the ride, to wake up early. Its easy to get the drive when there's a big race coming up, so its easy for me to be consistant in my training because everyone's training and I wouldn't wanna fall behind or get dropped on the weekend ride. Im just looking for that thing that i need that would make me jump up and start riding instead of thinking up reasons why I don't have to. I started a blog where I listed some of the stuff I could think of, but I still haven't found "the thing" that would give me drive and push me to be better. If anyone's interested, my blog is at http://cycleright.wordpress.com. I have some cool training tips on there that have worked for me in the past. |

All good advice. Especially on crappy days, or days when you're sore or whatever, it takes something else to get you started, and a good training partner, or group is a huge help. Lots of times I'll feel like garbage and really drag ass for the first 20 minutes, half hour, and then loosen up and feel great, but would've never gotten out of the house if it wasn't for training with someone.
