For the last 7 years I've lived in Seattle where I could ski in the morning and then ride in the afternoon. Now I'm in Montana where there has been snow on the ground for the past two months. It warmed up to 40 the other day so I took out the beater bike and enjoyed a blissful two and half hour ride on the only dry road within 100 miles! Thankfully it's easy to fill up my days with ski touring and cross country skiing
If you're stuck riding the trainer or trying to figure out what to do before riding season really starts, I highly recommend checking out cyclo-core. The workouts aren't easy, but they're not boring either. And I guarantee you'll be in very good shape when it comes time for those group rides and races.
