Quick Heads-Up – Travel Time
Heading to Italy from tomorrow (Ascension weekend). I might post a little less on the forum until Monday.
Still planning to:
- Ride daily (3 planned routes loaded in my Garmin),
- Stick to my diet plan (bringing the basics: protein, dextrin, rice cream),
- Do 1–2 core or kettlebell bodyweight sessions.
Staying active even while away — routine stays sharp
