I switched to cyclocross after the tri season and race every weekend.
With tris, I was used to doing something each day, but with Cx, it really is about showing up with fresh legs on Sunday to have a good race.
Like today, I feel good and would like to ride but know I really need to take it ez (50+ Cat 3)
that said, is there a fine line between Zone 1 for 45 minutes on the trainer OR just taking it ez and not riding (I went hard yesterday).
OR zone 1 can never hurt ... just to keep the gunk moving through the legs
