Well I lifted this morning pretty hard but I'm not riding this afternoon. I have a tough ride tomorrow morning and again Sunday. I've noticed that my legs are starting to be able to use the weight training on the bike. It doesn't help as much during anaerobic efforts as it does pushing against resistance on a climb. Since I haven't done much anaerobic work I don't expect much at this time. But I have noticed a difference in my ability to climb just this last week. Hopefully it will continue to get better. I'm sure my legs will feel the gym effort on the ride tomorrow but it will all be good as the pace is not going to be anything but to get the ride done. 62 miles and near 7000' of climbing will test them I'm sure.
