Recovery for sore quads.

Confession, this is a skiing injury caused by not biking enough leading up to ski season. I started riding regularly towards the end of summer until it got too cold and the road icy. I then took an RV trip and had to leave the bike behind for fear of getting my bike stolen off the rack.

So to begin ski season my legs are not ready. I skied 5 runs hard and quit when my legs began to give out. My legs have been sore for a few days with deep ache in my quads. I am taking a few days off from skiing to let them recover. I plan on setting up a bike trainer and Zwift this winter. Would some light spinning on my bike trainer help my quads recover or prolong the number of days till I can ski again?
