clint Posted April 13, 2007 Share Hi all... Just want to get an idea of how everyones Panorama training is going (for all of you doing it - that is). I am feeling good and very happy with the progress I have made over the last month, but the real test comes this weekend, 2 laps around Suikerbos Rand on both Saturday and Sunday! So 230km's of Suikerbos - Eish!!! Next week I start tapering off on the training, but will still do at least 4 days riding, and the week the Panorama starts, I will just do 1 session on the Tuesday to keep the legs going... Happy training... Clint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epoh Posted April 13, 2007 Share I dunno, I only started feeling much better again this week after my crash. I think ill do 120km odd on Saturday with some climbing in my area. I reckon I could easily hit 2000m just in and around my area. Then on Sunday I wanna do the Wilro, not go too hard but get the leg speed up. Its been a loooong time since I had done a race properly. And then maybe ride back to my house after the race.. that will give me 180km for the day! Now i just need to find a neut that would be willing to do it with me. Any takers?

clint Posted April 13, 2007 Share Ja ja Michelle!!! So I hear you are doing Suikerbos as well? Which car you using? Epoh, I was keen on the Wilro as well, just to get a race under my belt this month, but opted for the hill training instead! - Idiot huh! Why not do Suikerbos on Saturday and the Wilro on Sunday, that will give you a good indication of how you will feel after 2 days in the Panorama...
