Snow

March is the snowiest month in Colorado. This fact can be a hard pill to swallow when you are a bike racer-- especially after spending two weeks in sunny CA.

So, what's one to do? Ride the trainer? Sure, but everyday? No way.  Skip training? Hell no. HTFU? Yes. Get out and ride your bike.

You might surprise yourself with the fun adventures you have- and a surprisingly good training day. 

Sandwich a coffee shop stop in the middle of the ride, and you're good to go. My two adventures with Dr. Andy included stops at Tod's and Winot. Both were quite good and made for great ride "destinations".

Bonus of a CX bike- snow, dirt, mud, frozen-- who cares? I got to ride my bike today!

And I saw a snowman. The coolest snowman I have ever seen.
