Ride Ride Ride Ride. There is nothing like seat time.

I run and ride. But I can still hardly stand up after the race so I don't know how good thats working.

I hit the gym 5 times a week, but nothing gets you prepared for racing other that seat time.

I drink light beer instead of regular, lol!:eek2:


Just kidding, mostly I do arm strengthening things and stretches. Again, seat time can never hurt either.

I am still in high school so i usually just go to the weight room during P.E. I will also try to run twice a week, just whenever i have time. But the main thing is to ride alot. i try to ride at least twice a week too.

The day before a race eat some kind of pasta. When your at the track drink either energy drinks, gatorade, or water and eat banana's..lol...it helps, seriously!
