A week in Lanzarote in December followed by a week inland near Spain’s Costa Blanca was a welcome break to training on the Tacx turbo trainer. We were very fortunate to have good dry sunny weather but was somewhat surprised at the frost on the climbs in Spain. Yes the climbs to the “port” (that’s the summit of a climb) were all gritted due to frozen morning roads! When abroad, Margaret my wife, is the guide and she always manages to find an off-road section for our road bikes,but we always get back to base.
