I am committed.

I am totally committed to entering a time trial next cycling season. I decided this past week that with a little more training I could definately do it. So next year I am going to start with some 20-35km time trials. After speaking briefly with some of the guys at my LBS (local bike shop you n00bs) it seems that around here the TTs are all kept very flat which will be extremely beneficial to a big guy like me.

I am extremely excited about this, of course, and am going to be modifying my training as well as turning it up a notch. Tomorrow will start a series of sessions devoted to flatland riding. I have a perfect road that is essentially flat that I can just tear up and down. I will do this, pushing my bike as fast as I can for as long as I can (or until the road ends). Much like hill workouts for XC (cross country, come on try and keep up) where you sprint up steep hills, these should help me get better situated on the bike in an aero position and help me get some better straight line speed.
