Due to those two hard rides on Sunday and Monday my body is still recovering and therefore tonight I did a modified ride.
After a pretty substantial warm-up, the goal was to say in zone 3 but vary my cadence.
I went from 90 cadence for five minutes down to 50 cadence for five minutes. Then back up to 85 and down to 55- but keeping my heart rate in zone three which meant I had to use my gears to keep going.
Supposedly it gave my heart a break, but still worked my legs. The tough part about it was that the other riders were doing a different ride, and to me, seemingly more fun ride.
In total I was on the bike about an hour and 15 minutes and back home just before 9pm.
