Hi all, aiming for a July ‘21 BGR attempt. As the title suggests, I’m based on the South Coast (that famous fell running region...), so would be great to find fellow southern softies to either train with or car share up to the Lakes. I’ll also be doing regular trips to Brecon to get my hill legs in - again, happy to give people a lift if needed. I’m no racing snake, so anyone targeting a quick round might want to look elsewhere

On another topic, would be interesting to hear how any fellow flat-landers utilised the bike in their training for successful rounds. I’m planning on 1-2 rides a week with long, low cadence Z4 efforts - basically a poor man’s attempt at replicating a sustained climb. Obviously no substitute for the pounding of a rough day up (and down!) the fells, but would be good to hear views for/against these sort of sessions.

Cheers,

Matt
