Test b3126044e8 refactor: flatten vault structure — simplify migration API and flatten demo vault
- Simplify flatten_vault API to return usize instead of MigrationResult struct
- Add KEEP_FOLDERS: attachments/ and _themes/ alongside type/, config/, theme/
- Use HashSet for collision tracking in unique_filename
- Update wikilinks from path-based [[folder/slug]] to title-based [[slug]]
- Clean up empty directories after flattening
- Flatten demo-vault-v2: move all notes from type-based subfolders to root
- Update smoke tests for flat vault structure
- Remove migrate_to_flat_vault from repair_vault (one-time migration only)

Cycling Training

Cycling training covers the structured pursuit of road cycling performance — training plans, periodization, nutrition on the bike, gear decisions, and race preparation for gran fondos and long-distance rides. It is the primary physical discipline and a significant part of life outside work.

Why this matters

Cycling is more than fitness — it is a forcing function for discipline, patience, and long-term thinking. The parallels with building a business are surprisingly direct: you cannot rush base fitness any more than you can rush audience growth, and the athletes who recover well outperform those who simply train more. The evergreen note cycling-teaches-patience captures this. Training also provides the physical foundation described in responsibility-health-fitness, and the interplay between training load and knowledge work explored in training-load-and-knowledge-work is a constant balancing act.

Key resources

Notes

  • Structured training with clear intensity zones produces better results than riding hard every day — polarized training works
  • Gran fondo preparation requires at least 12 weeks of dedicated build, and skipping the base phase always shows up on race day
  • Nutrition on the bike is the most overlooked performance lever for amateur cyclists — fueling properly transforms long rides
  • Indoor training on the smart trainer is efficient but mentally taxing; mixing it with outdoor rides keeps motivation high
  • The best cycling season starts with a proper off-season: rest, strength work, and zero guilt about lower volume
