I met the coach and have to say I am impressed so far.. We covered where I am up to what are my goals and how he is going to help me achieve them. I'm apparently going to be working in zones one and two for a while. More on that later. I also have some testing to do which will be interesting. This will be a regular event throughout the training. So today has been spent counting the teeth on five bikes and providing details to the coach.

I still managed a spin though although it was a very windy (force 4-5) damp on the way out and raining on the way back. I was also held up for a while by a horse drawn funeral not that it bothered me. And I still haven't started warming up before I ride.
