Pump Up the Base on my commute?
/0 Comments/in Ask Lee, F6: Six moves to build your foundation, Prepare to Pin It training program, Pump Up the Base training program/by leelikesbikesLee, I am fortunate to be able to bike commute to work (25min each way) and ride at lunch (45min) for a total of 20 miles/day.

They show cadence, wattage and time, but they also […]
The best prescription riding glasses — ever
/3 Comments/in Ask Lee/by leelikesbikesLee, So it turns out I’ve had astigmatism for years and I just went to the eye doctor and got a pair of glasses. omg life is 4k HDTV now, I can actually see in detail (altho I’m getting motion sickness, haven’t adjusted yet).
