Mickey Posted March 23, 2006 Share Once you have done the Jock any other race is a baby. I think it is very tuff mentally. Even if you have the training the last 40km is always going up ... not steep but up... you must just hope you are not cramping at the start of the last 40km or its going to be a long ride. Seconding on this last piece is very important. Stay hydrated and full of food. I consumed 8000 calories according to my Polar HR monitor, for the 150km. So you will have to eat/drink 6000cal on the ride if possible... which is a lot of food and drink. Dont be scared to start eating and drinking at the start and within the first 30km... else you will never catch up.I used 2 water bottles per stage plus energy bars and fruit cake per stage. I found by staying energy loaded I managed a 5 hr 150km. Good luck... smileys/smiley32.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amoryns Posted March 23, 2006 Share Thanks, training started in full swing this week. Do you think doing the 150km the first time is a good idea (being a girly)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gumpole Posted March 23, 2006 Share Knysna upcountry??!! - Anyway a tough race and I would recommend it. Just beware of the wet slippery roads in the Cape winter morning.previous Jock thread: https://www.bikehub.co.za/f_posts.asp?TID=2853& ;KW=jock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
