As effective and gratifying as following a carefully crafted training plan can be, sometimes you just want to ride... And that can be impactful training, too!  Especially here in the fall, riding on a weekly rhythm of taking some days off, and going hard and/or long on other days is a great recipe for mental and physical health.
