Threshold Round Two

On the stock road bike, wearing a flappy jersey, carrying 2 large water bottles and a saddle bag I went back to the Cedars TT course. Although improving my elapsed time is not the objective here and now, I thought I might shave a second or two off Monday's time. That did not happen as a steady 10-12 mph wind from the NW was blowing across the road making the conditions tougher than before. No matter, the point is to start spending some time near lactate threshold, repeating this workout improves the ability to clear lactic acid and develop power from the anaerobic system.
