Could I ask all you good cyclists if you think 6 days consecutive riding with daily mileages between 80 and 130 miles (most over 100) is feasible for a very occasional cyclist? Oh, and it will be hilly!

As long as youre not going race speed! Dont forget to stretch well at the end of day and start gently to warm up in the morning. Where are you going?Originally Posted by Wheeze

So circa 6 hours a day? 1 long stint, 2 with a break? 3 sessions of 2 hours?
..er, little matter of the self styled "Tour De Galles". No major running for me this year as I am a gimp, but I will be able to cycle. Approx 630 miles in 6 days over the best roads and hills that Wales can offer
Reckon that on the level of cycling I was before my crash it is on, Wheeze just needs some hard hours in the saddle, toughen up his bum and all that
And a new divorco-stead obviously??Wheeze just needs some hard hours in the saddle, toughen up his bum and all that
Yup, length of stints to be determined by terrain and the need for sensible feeding! Bite sized chunks is psychologically good!
Obviously!!!
Well not a whole steed for me, but I reckon I could do with some really swish wheels
You coming?
Not sure my cycling is up to it! Plus I have just bought a new stead so no point there?
Although I can buy on cycle to work scheme now!
Ohhh, I like the idea, can I join you guys for some of it? And when is this Tour of Wales planned for?
I reckon you should be ok Wheeze, as long as you put in some long rides beforehand, the pace isn't too high and don't mind a sore bum
Oh and did 60 kms on the track this morning, just to stay on topic... Turbo tonight...
I am in the process of deciding what to buy, steed wise...
I need a full carbon road bike and I am also in need of a track bike...
