🔥 DEBATE OF THE WEEK
"Indoor cycling is cheating — real progress only happens on the road." With Zwift, TrainerRoad, and smart trainers, more and more riders barely go outside anymore… But is that really the same as riding out in the wind, the hills, and the chaos of real roads? 🌧️ Is indoor riding a powerful training tool… or just a comfort zone that slows down real progress?🤔 Do you prefer sweating in your living room or battling the elements? Make your case below 👇

Personally, I’d rather invest in quality outdoor gear than a bike trainer. I find long trainer sessions monotonous, and they just don’t have the same impact on me as riding outside. Facing wind, weather, and unpredictable conditions not only builds physical strength, it’s a mental workout too. There’s something powerful about training in the elements that no indoor setup can replicate.
Hills a benefit?
Hill’s friend or foe? Do you like them? Why/why not?

100% a benefit, with the right training. I came from a hillier area and now live in the flats, and even with the same effort, hills hit differently. They demand more from your glutes, quads, and core, and they build strength and resilience in ways flats just don’t. I definitely feel the difference when I don’t have that terrain around!
Power Meters vs Feel: Do You Need Tech to Train Effectively?
Power meters or riding by feel, what’s better for training? I love my power data, but some just go by vibe! Do you need tech to get faster, or is feel enough?

I think having a power meter on your bike is incredibly valuable. While I understand why some riders might prefer not to use one, the ability to quantify effort opens up strategic possibilities. With the right data, you can structure your training sessions more effectively and align them with principles like progressive overload to promote long-term improvement and avoid plateaus and burnouts.

Mornig, afternoon of evening warrior?
Hi all! I'm just wondering when is your time to sit on the bike and train - is it early morning, somewhere during afternoon or late evening? For me the long rides work best early morning but it usually happens during weekends. During the week I usually get on at the evening which can be really challenging :D Yea, I think, I can wake up early and jump on the bike early morning but I'm really not sure how I would finish some hi intesity intervals at 4 or 5 am and then do something else without sleeping for nex 2 hours :D Any experiences?

Early-mid morning or mid-late evening. Rides are less hot. It depends if I go into work early then I would go ride in the evening, and if I go into work later then I would bike in the morning.
