I don't know. At my age "discipline" as it relates to cycling meant going on out and riding anyway in spite of light rain or wind, or cold when I normally would skip riding because of these conditions. So I made it a "goal", if you want to call it that, to try and stay in shape through the winter, riding as often as I have time. Which means sometimes riding in the aforementioned conditions. That's what I was thinking as "discipline" when I read the title of this thread.

But the first point mentioning a "training" ride and I'm out. I don't do training rides, intervals, HR and power monitors. Those 5 or 6 points mentioned would take the fun of riding out of it for me. I ride as often as I can, usually 2-4 times a week, averaging 30-40 miles is ideal for me. I've ridden centuries, meh...
I DO plan to ride a one week tour in a month or so and plan on 40+ to 50+ miles per day for 5-6 days. Is that a goal? And I probably need to ramp up my rides as much as possible the next few weeks. Is that training?

Nothing against those who do all the OP posted if that's your thing. Just not big priorities with me.
