Coaches Corner Week 8

<description>Hosts: Alex Spraggs, race director of the Meraloma Bike Club and Paul Moffatt, owner of Velosophy.ca and cycling coach for the Meraloma Bike Club.

This week we have Jac Holmes as our guest Loma on the Pod and we have a bit of a deep dive into long rides. How do we prep for them and prevent muscle soreness? How can we maximize our training rides and time in the saddle without compromising training outcomes by churning out junk miles? And how can we tell that we might need some more recovery?</description>

This week we have Tim as our guest Loma, talking about "good legs" and how to get them, after Paul and I discuss the ins and outs of gravel riding on the lower mainland.
