Do you have a training plan, or just ride?!
For me, I just ride. Sometimes I wake up and say, 'today im going to hammer (that climb)' or 'im going to ride 70+ miles today' but other than that, I just like to ride sort of hard every time I ride. This has worked well for my 1st two years of cycling, but I think as I'm getting better I need some actual intervals to get better. Or, to up my weekly mileage...
