Absorption.

Have had a few weeks to go out and do long rides to build the base up but I always seem to run into the same problem. I can't absorb the miles into my legs to be able to effectively backup for the next days session. This means doing long rides every second day until I am able to absorb the volumes... 

Got a few 400km weeks in, which isn't too bad - but the legs are still recovering and my power has dropped dramatically, so i'll take it easy for the next few days and get some quality recovery in before ramping it up again...
