Any exercise is better than no exercise. However, to really improve your fitness level, you have to exercise intensely. If you do not feel burning in your muscles and shortness of breath at least two or three times a week when you exercise, you are not getting a strong enough stimulus to make yourself significantly faster, stronger and have greater endurance.

Enjoy

Hi there,

I'm visiting NYC and the Hamptons (Southampton/Bridgehampton area) for a couple of weeks from 16th July and I would like to keep my training up.  Looking for recommendations for:

- Where I can rent a good quality road bike in the Hamptons

- Whether there are any organised ride outs I can join in the Hamptons

- Where I can do a decent spin class in NYC without having to join a club

Thank you,

Vicki

Chris Froome crashed out of the Tour. After yesterdays crash that left him injured, he crashed twice more today on the way to todays pave sections. He injured himself again and abandoned. 

Good program... and I liked the new venue... good food, more on-tap choices, a pleasant change of pace from Annie Moore's... it had a nice, intimate feel, very conducive to pre-program socializing... well done Eden!

Having watched the Tour de France for over 10 years, I am finding it especially difficult this year to endure the commentary of Bob, Phil, and Paul.  Besides being sick of their now stale and repetitive patter, it's hard to move on from the doping era when three of the key Lance apologists are on the air.

Bob -- does "dope" (now the green kind)

Paul -- knew about the "dope"

Phil -- is a "dope"

Trying to map out a ride to Montclair, NJ from NYC but am unfamiliar with that area.  Looking for suggestions for any solid (or just passable) roads going in that general direction from the GW Bridge.

Dismount and slow step away from your bike
