// Key topics in this episode:
To build base properly, you must ride aerobically (zone 2 & below)
You can only build so much base, then you have to move on in tuning your engine (move beyond zone 2, or from foundation to main floor)
Your best engine, or house that you build, will be a combination of the intelligent work you do on the bike combined with how much time you actually have to put into it. Volume works.
Your Ford Focus is fine! This means if you have the budget (available time) to afford a Ford Focus (limited training time) rather than a Porsche (unlimited training time), optimize to get everything you can out of the Ford.
