Brian V Posted September 6, 2007 Share Hi, Anyone in the Randpark Ridge, Weltevredenpark, Northern suburbs, willing to take on a beginner as a training partner. Busy trying to prepare for the 94.7 Cycle challenge and need all the advice and training sessions I can get. I'm a real novice and working on getting fit enough for the race.

Zaskar Posted September 6, 2007 Share Chat to Slowpoke, Amateur or MichaelH, they all stay around there, and are always looking for new people to join in their morning rides! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpoke Posted September 6, 2007 Share Brian V, you have just become the catalyst to restart the morning rides! amateur, michaelH, when is the first morning ride gonna be? it's warm enough to get outta bed early enough again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanJ Posted September 6, 2007 Share Talking about your morning rides, I rode up Golf Club Terrace a few weeks ago, sh!t that road is steep !!! When you get around the bends it is actually about 16% . Isn't that where you and MichH were doing your hill intervals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpoke Posted September 6, 2007 Share ianJ, that was a long time ago... so much has happened in the meantime and i doubt i'd make it up there even on my mtb at the moment but yep, i used to survive cycling there, doing 2 reps and then cycling the whole way home! ag wat, ek raak maar oud... that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it!

SeanMort Posted September 9, 2007 Share Hello Brian V, I see the Hubbers haven't been too helpful with potential training opportunities. Come on guys !! Help this newbie out .. I referred him here from the Gumtree website for why ?Brian ... if you are able to, there are training facilities available at Kyalami racetrack during the week where you can cycle for a few hours. Go to www.troisport.co.za for more info. You can also join a ride with us out in the Eastrand on Sundays leaving Centre Of The Earth Nursery in Modderfontein at 06:30. PM MichaelH for more details. MichaelH ... hope you're getting fit to ride from Midrand to PMB for the 'Shova in a few short weeks. I'm looking forward to it [that reminds me, does Shammy cream come in 5L containers ? ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
