Never done a tri before. Running background, with leisure swimming time. My big issue is the bike, I find it boring. Any suggestion on how to make it more fun?

If you're inside, put on a movie and follow a program with some intervals. If you're outside, join a group.

I enjoy long rides exploring areas I live nearby but have never visited. I was surprised that I lived here all my life and have never traveled so many local roads.

Riding with a group certainly makes it more enjoyable, but even riding solo and exploring new roads/areas that you've never seen on a bike is always fun and exciting!

You're the opposite of me - I find the bike to be the most fun discipline. I'll echo the "exploring" comments - it's fun to ride around areas you've never been and try new routes. It's also just fun to go fast on a bike.

Why is it so hard to start over after an extended leave from the sport. When it comes to training we can't live in our glory days!

Does it matter how fast you go? Does it matter if you win? No. It only matters that you tri your best and smile when you cross the finish line.
