Rode the talkie bike... Had to bail on a ride, cause I knew I wouldn't be able to last. I think in a couple weeks I might try that ride again, but in a 15 minute ride instead of 45.

15 minutes? That's just a warm up...

How old are you?

38... I think it has something to do with my knee. My knee has been fucked since as long as I can remember but this is the first time my leg started cramping like this.

Perhaps not drinking enough water

Used to get those at night when I was a kid.

"Charlie Horse." Never knew why they called them that.

You seen the doc about the steroid doping scandal on Netflix? "Icarus."

I'm only halfway through but the first part deals with the doping of competition bikers and the Russian involvement in covering it up.

I will say a few of the rides I've tried were lacking sufficient water and HR breaks. So in a song where there are 4 planned efforts, just take the middle 2 off. Don't need to treat every class like it's a time trial.

But even for me, gone are the days of the 3 hour morning spin.

the ones I have been doing lately haven't had any flat roads where you can take a break, but I am mainly doing 20 min to half hour rides.

I can slow down a second and take a sip of water.

Yeah I am sure it has a lot to do with that. I don't drink as much as I should or when I was younger
