Stanislaus -4 - first step of my 6-week VO2 plan (which will be cut in 2 by 2 weeks of vacation - yeah!). I’m basically doing the sequence Coach Chad suggested, at 3 per week, dropping the easiest one and adding a harder one every week, until I get to Kaiser, my nemesis.
I plan to do one or 2 outdoor easy rides on top each week.
