Rolly Weaver is a crafty cyclist, and this is why I asked him on. He knows when to light the match and when to hold back. He brings up some great tactical race topics, but also hits on training: how obsessed the culture has become with JUST WATTS, and forgetting how to learn the tactical race craft.  

Rolly has raced professionally all across the globe, from China, Taiwan, Uruguay, Dominican Republic and many more international locations. He's won numerous state championships in multiple disciplines.  

Topics included:  

Crit with a hill; when are you pulling? Rolly dives in.  

How can you tell when your competitor is getting tired?  

Don't shadow a faster rider in a race! We've discussed this before, but another great reminder. Get away from the fastest guys!   

VOLUME. Rolly is a big fan of volume and we chat about hitting 15,000 miles in September.  C

ross country trip on bikes; this is a solid maybe.  

Rolly warns you about the cut and paste programs; they don't work!  

Failing intervals is okay. Often times, you're finding a weakness! We live in an instant gratification society and cycling doesn't work that way.   

"The mind always goes first: I can't do this." How to elevate your mental game so that you can WIN!  Racing is so much more than watts! 

Watts are improvement, and a GREAT thing to focus on, but don't go overboard and let the power meter TOOL dictate everything.  

Thanks for listening and share it with a friend.
