Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
Well you can't get faster w/o going faster, so I'm going to start doing some speed work/intervals during my training.
Anyone have a good website or book I can check out? something that really gets into the basics for a n00b?
thanks!
Well, you can start with Sally Edwards' book: "The Heart Rate Monitor". If you already have one and know how to use it, you can move on to her book she co-authored with Sally Reed called "The Heart Rate Monitor Book for Outdoor and Indoor Cyclists".
Those are pretty easy reads, and they will get you on the right path.
