11

That was the temperature yesterday morning in the garage for my workout. It sucked. Started my work out but never could really warm up. When I started my 20:00 interval I began sweating and was pretty wet within 5 minutes. so my extremities were freezing along with the sweat but my core was hot. It was no fun to say the least and I am really sick of winter...ready for some more warm outside riding.

On top of that, half way through my ride my PowercontrolV quit working, the screen froze for about 20 seconds, then went blank. I guess it was due, it has about 30k miles on it. So now I am without power for a week at least and will be going back to using HR and PE, its no big deal really and may actually be good for me to get back to some longer riding without focusing on the numbers to much.

I think to many riders become obsessed with "the numbers" and burn them selves out obsessing about power.
