Transition from Track to Road

This winter was very exciting with track races in England, Australia, China and Denmark. The racing was insanely fast with all the countries trying to earn spots for the Olympics. After the last World Cup I decided to take a much needed rest from racing and start my "off-season" training. Basically this consists of getting back into the gym and doing long rides again. During track season a 2hr ride was a long ride, so getting 4-5hr rides in is really nice. Also, I'm back in the hills again after 6 months on the flat ovals. I forgot how much hill repeats hurt. I plan on racing on the road again in a couple weeks. I definitely need to loose the track booty and get my endurance back. I hope to see everyone out there soon.
