Training Log Archive: Torino

Did an organized bike-O training with timekeeping ang all (with Air-touch). Escaped the rain and was actually "warmer" in the woods than expected, still about 5 degrees. Some trails were muddy from all the rain and it was tough riding on them and I still don't seem to have that strength. But there were also lots of fun single trails with lots of roots and turns and twists. The course was excellent with route choices. A really fun training.
(For trainings we (in Switzerland) don't need a permit and can therefore use all the trails and shortcuts that are usually off-limit when we have to ask for a permit for an official meet. However, in some of those trainings I have been to, there is usually a crowd of at least 50 people, sometimes from all over CH and surely over half if not all of the Swiss team! So maddening that reality with permits are so short-sighted on behalf of authorities. Sigh)
