That's OK.  There will be different distance/time options for every session.  Pick what suits you.  Not sure?  We'll help you assess the proper amount of work to do throughout the week.

As a bike mechanic and builder, I either stock or have the ability to get several items such as powermeter cranksets, tires, tubes, cassettes, chains, stems, Garmin Computers, aerobars, cranks, derailleurs, brakes, etc.  Let me know ahead of time if you know you need something installed/replaced/fixed, and I'll make sure we have it ready for you.
