Cadre Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 Does anyone perhaps know where I can find a training program for K2C? I've done a fair bit of 100km+ road races, but this will be my first MTB one. Not looking to race, just want to finish without too much pain. Thanks. Everybody hurts. Looooong climbs, all rideable. I have tried a training program before... Nargggh. Did not help much. Just spend your time riding a lot. Include long hills. My 3rd this year. During the hard yards I always tell myself. ... You are #@%^&* insane. However, I keep coming back every year..... (pretty much for the same reason). It is also the only MTB race I do, the rest is road.

lerouc Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 Guys, have decided to skip out on my 5th one in a row...anyone interested in entry, let me know.
Cadre Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 You can do it on a road bike these days. They graded the only two difficultish sections."the only two difficultish sections".... That must be the first half and also the second half???
Dicky DQ Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 "the only two difficultish sections".... That must be the first half and also the second half???Ou Wapad up and down used to be where you could make up time on an MTB. Now a gravel grinder is fine, in fact a road bike with 25C's should also do it now.
HeyJude Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 If there are any clubs in Kwazulu Natal that are planning to go down to do the K2C, and have a seat to spare, I am looking for a lift to go and do the race. It is no use going on my own and flying is too expensive. It can't hurt to ask around on the hub.
