I tend to take your position – in not stopping cycling but lower the intensity.
I have been recommended a training plan in the ‘Black Book’ as my fellow club members call it.
Three days turbo training in the week – and one or perhaps two longer rides at week end, weather permitting.
All steady rides to work on base fittness.
However, I have not really had any time off, well no off time at all to tell the truth.
I am taking your stance, gambling on some later bad weather to allow a slow down or a few day off,
I do like most find it difficult to face more the 2 hrs on the ‘rack’ (I am fairly new to serious cycling, 2 years, I am now understanding the origins of some of the cycling jargon, i.e. the rack)
1 hr is bad enough.
Hopefully the winter weather will not be a bad as last year.

I enjoy reading other riders views and opinions on Riding and training it tends to boost my own motivation.
Roll on next season, hopefully fitter and faster.

I also hope to do more over winter for an even better year next year.

If the roads are too dangerous with ice/snow will you use the turbo? Would you still do long 60-80% rides or some kind of intervals? I find the turbo mind numbing for anything over an hour.

Thanks for insight into your winter training.
