Is anyone doing this one? We've signed up... Going to try at least 125 if not 150... Depends on what my longest is the weekend before and how I'm feeling. I figure it's a good serious almost last long training ride...
I am trying to convince my Brother in law to do it, he is riding a performance hybrid, but he does not think he can do it. I think I am doing it, but this time will depend on the winds/rain.
I mentioned the Velo Select club that I am part of, Sunday they are doing a 120K ride and soon a 200K ride is anyone is interested.
This past Wednesday was a really fast group, we were averaged about 40K/hr, we did 50K in just over 1 hr (I was beat!) That day I did 103K.
Normally it is not like that, for example on Sunday, it would break up into 3 (or 4) groups, FAST 35k/hr+, Med35k - 35k/hr, "Slow" (20 - 25k/hr) Still better than your average cyclist. But no one gets left behind. So even if you break out with the fast group and can't keep going, the next group is just behind. The club is for your average rider, and they don' t want people to feel intimidated by some of the faster riders (some of them can really go!). But Sunday's are the best for people starting out, they have all types of riders.
thanks for the info Dez... Still wondering if anyone else is doing this one on Saturday:
