wannamtber Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Everybody must be training "flat out" hence the silence!!! Team MHB starting to pick up the distance now,strongs with your trainingHope I'm doing enough... Is it possible to do enough if you're also part of the worker's class??
Cejay Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Hope I'm doing enough... Is it possible to do enough if you're also part of the worker's class??I do believe so,it is a case of managing your time during the week,fortunately my partner is also my wife so it does make it easier.We are a group of 4 training together and during the week we are on the bikes by 03h50 to put in 2 hours before going to work.
Dominik Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 How is everyone's training coming along? I'm following the training guide from fittrack and hope I can use that as a guide, I have done the Transbaviaans in 2013 and 2014 and did the first half of the 36One last year, this year I'm hoping to go all the way buy doing the full. All that I can remember from last year was that it was cold at night, I almost fell of the bike a couple of times due to falling asleep (was cycling all alone with no company from about 120km - 180km) This year I also have someone that will do it with me (both entries solo's but going to work together) Seems like there will be more riders than last year.
Room Service Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Did the 24hr oakvalley to see where my training's at. Got 386kms with 8226mt climbing in 24hrs. Seems I'm on track.

Seems I'm on track.So that means you should take about 22hrs to do 36One [emoji12] Hopefully you can give that Belgian a go and stop him from winning our races.
tommy two shoes Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Been tough to fit the hours in - work, kids & summer heat. Averaging 6 hours a week for the last three months, gonna increase to 8hrs till end of March. Hope that is okay. First time doing a mtb race over 105ks so should be interesting!
TrailWarrior Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 At the moment around 13 -15hrs on a good week....well, that is where I am at? I'm hoping at this point it is good enough.......
Erroli8a8 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Anyone have the .GPX file for the 180 or half??
Dirt De Vil Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Hi All, I would like to do 150 - 200km sessions on some weekends. Any ideas on routes that is possible around Gauteng hopefully mostly on dirt.

JeankiePowerrr Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Just a tip for training.. Dont think of doing long training rides.. JUST DO IT!! http://www.strava.com/activities/252104131
Velouria Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Im Dutch... Just saying!Mind games. Nothing more insulting than referring to a Dutchman as Belgian
Ham Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Im Dutch... Just saying! And you did it a lot quicker than 22hrs.
