Starting early this year // 1st cross training is done!



Ok, I know it's early and all but I just couldn't resist anymore! I was planning to keep cyclocross as a priority for this season and luckily I'm not the only one in Team ThinkBike. We have decided to get the ball rolling and start early this season. 

We had our first training session that was ment to be a "nice and easy cross spin" that turned into a proper fast enough bike ride. My team mate Liam is really into cross, so he was pushing us to our limits a good few times this evening.   

We went up to the Massey's Woods and after that to the Hellfire Club tonight and got a bit of everything: grass, mud, fire roads, roots and some nice amount of climbing as well. Was a bit funny to ride the cross bike after soo many months on the mountain bike. Would need a little more time to get the hang of it again! :) 

So, it has started. No turning back now. Will keep a mix of mountain biking and cross for 2 weeks and after that it'll be pretty much cross all the way! Well, that's the plan anyway. Bring on the racing season, can't wait!!
