@rekiwi That sounds dope! I wish my kids were so eager for cycling! I’m trying to show them it’s an adventure, but age is their limit for now (7, 5 and 0,5). I’m a gravel converted roadie, doing half of the yearly distance at night, so I hope one day they will go out with me instead going to bed…😂 We will eventually get there! @cycling@rower
My 8 & 11yo boys race track cycling during summer. The local club charge $A5 (=€3/$US3) per session which includes use of a track bike and about 3 races over the course of 2 hours.
Emphasis on fun. They both get up early every Sunday and prepare their own bags so we get there on time.
@ClintonAnderson@systemz Take it easy guys!😅 Of course I did! I can also pull off a "look mom no hands" while pushing the kid next to me. Not that I do it very often, but nothing bad ever happened. I am glued to the saddle, though...😎 @cycling@rower
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower Oh man… still jealous because I have this year not workout out in the gym on the 24th and neither will on the 31st. Being inactive is shit. 😪
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower During the summers here, the heat at home is nowhere near as bad as the heat outdoors, even in my unconditioned garage (where I have my erg).
@adamrice Oh there is no way I’m doing trainer in the summer… I ride at home only in winter and only when it’s unbearably wet. Cold doesn’t bother me, freezing rain does… As soon as it’s acceptable, I choose to ride outside… @cycling@rower
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower I pedal at such a slow cadence. I have to put real effort in to spin at about 95rpm. I'm more a Jan Ullrich grinding the gears rider than a Chris Froome whirl the pedals like the chain has come off one.
@arratoon I usually go around 90rpm, but indoor cycling is so mundane, I find it more and more difficult to motivate myself to do it… So, cadence reflects my passion for it…🤣 @cycling@rower
