Never ever been close to riding for 9 days before...Looking for some people to ride with in Pretoria that know what it takes!PLEASE LOL pop me a message if you have some time on your hands for a chat!Here to some serious riding in December-Jan-Feb-March!!very simple, start building up to 3-5 hour easy rides every saturday and sunday and hard rides in the week, TIME IN THE SADDLE, and when you got loong weeknds get used to doing 100km consecutively over a few days 3-4 and you will be fine, it would be a great time to start over december get used to riding day after day and build on that, unless you racing joberg2c is very doable challenge
BrentCGP Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks Dipslick I though as much, it boils down to time. Going to have a wonderful December!Got a PM as well from a rider who rode this year, will also give him a call to find out the nitty gritty of a 9 dayer... and what to pack.... very simple, start building up to 3-5 hour easy rides every saturday and sunday and hard rides in the week, TIME IN THE SADDLE, and when you got loong weeknds get used to doing 100km consecutively over a few days 3-4 and you will be fine, it would be a great time to start over december get used to riding day after day and build on that, unless you racing joberg2c is very doable challenge
DIPSLICK Posted December 2, 2014 Author Posted December 2, 2014 Every time this thread pops up I think I must pull the trigger on a solo entry
boy racer Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Im in for number 6 this year, yup need my head read........ Its all about time in the saddle, mental fitness and endurance and most of all HAVE FUN!!!
Hackster Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 So here's a question about training. Generally over December, January and February we are training for Argus, sorry Cape Town Cycle Tour. Our training is 2 x 1.5 hour rides during the week and a 100 km on the weekend. And we aim to get 3:20 to 3:30. Which we usually achieve But now this year, we're doing the... CTCT and the J2C (for the first time). How much can I rely on my road bike training? I took strain on the W2W (although I did a reasonable time), and I felt it was because I hadn't spent enough time on the mountain bike. And the other question is, if I switch over to MTB training now, will it hurt my Argus time? I understand the TITS concept but does it matter which saddle?
