Went spinning on Friday morning with a 27 degree windchill. My toes were kind of cold when I got home. Rode 1.5 hours. Christmas day cooked with the family. Sunday went skiing at Mt. Baker all day - total of 6 hours. Got heart rate up and enjoyed the powder.

Good ride today. Felt strong on sprinting exercises. Had some technical issues with my fenders but duck tape and zip ties did the trick. Max HR 168 during last sprint. I would like to get together and find out some other sprinting techniques if you have a chance.
