anybody really seriously train for cycling?

??

i'll be the first to admit i don't (i just ride for fun) so please don't think i'm bein' an asshloe to ask. there've been some talk about droppin' roadies so i thought i'd ask about training.

personally i watch fanatically what i eat (though i've 'fessed up to overconsumption of cheap red wine and am tryin' to cut down ), religiously run at least 40 mi a week, and ride as much as i can--mostly to work this time of year--about 20 miles r/t). no weightliftin' or anything like that. just runnin' and ridin' for fun.

so there ain't no way in hell i'm gonna hang with serious (or even semi-serious) roadies on a "training regime" like that.

anybody else?
