FRED WRIGHT - GETTING BACK TO SPEED

No matter the hours of precise training and effort put into the pre-season, you never truly know how the shape will turn out once the racing kicks off.

Numbers can be better, you could have done more hours or more gym sessions than before, but let's face it, every pro cyclist has a power meter.

Everyone's pushing to do more and improve each year.

Yes, maybe, I know I'm better, but how does my better compare to everyone else? I started the season this year with a couple of one-day races in Spain.

It's nice to race in the Valencia region because most of the pre-season is spent training there; it's like racing on home roads for most of the peloton.
