Daylight Savings Time is a nuisance for most folks, but for cyclists everywhere it usually brings evening group training sessions that are fast and fun workouts that help us get through our busy work weeks.
That makes this time year feel more like a holiday, especially if you are one of the many riders that is relegated to indoor trainer time throughout the winter because of the short days and foul weather. Despite the thrill and enjoyment of group riding, these workouts lack purpose or a goal, and thus do not necessarily move an Athlete toward cycling goals. That is why we suggest you always "group ride with a purpose"! In this weeks podcast we talk group riding and how you can use these workouts to gain more than random fitness. We call out specific tactics that will help you get both a targeted fitness benefit but also hone your pack riding skills while out on your local group ride. We also discuss the pitfalls that come with regular group riding and suggest how you can avoid them so you can continually build your fitness and pack riding skills throughout the season!
