Being a British road cyclist during winter is not easy. It is cold, it rains a lot, the roads are typically strewn with filth, and a lack of natural light makes personal safety more of a concern. It is no wonder so many two-wheeled fans wrap up their steeds and forget all about it until Spring.
But therein lies a problem because once the weather becomes more favourable, you might find that your bike fitness has slipped during the off-season, and it takes longer to get back into the swing of things.
