Sorry for the delay in sending off my mail to all this week. This have been a little hectic at work!
I have attached our Argus training programme again as there are quite a few of you who might have missed it. Sorry for those who are getting it second time round. (promise if wont be a third)
Don’t forget to log your rides as this is important to establish to see how you are proving the more riding you do, or the opposite way round.
Cycling is a wonderful sport. The more you put in the more you get out…. Hard Work though….
Thursday 04h30 Circuits
Normal stuff – hang in until you get dropped. Tip for circuits….. look for a steady good strong wheel. Important – look at ahead of the bunch and not only at the wheel you are sitting behind…stay with the pack on the corners so your heart rate stays steady and you don’t go anaerobic.
Friday 04h30 Bluff
Steady fast ride around the bluff circuit. For those wanting only coffee they can turn at the smooth road (as per normal and go for coffee)
Saturday 04h30 Oscars /Essenwood Road
Group will meet outside Oscars video store and go inland – heading to the top of Inchanga.
If you want to come and turn early, find a buddy who will turn early with you. Time on this turning at Kearsney is a 3 hour ride, Inchanga is a 3.30/4.00 hour ride.
Saturday 05h00 Engen
I am leaving this ride open to who ever has time restraints or for anyone who only wants to ride on the flat road and wants to do an easy ride.
I am encouraging all to ride inland with me, as you can ask anyone that has ridden inland it is a steady easy ride up the hills and then we ride back.
Sunday 05h00 Engen
We will ride South Coast to Scottburgh on Sunday unless the wind is howling in the opposite direction. If so we will go the other way. Into the head wind first and back with a tail wind. 110km
Please don’t forget to cheer on our fellow cyclists who are competing at Natal Champs this weekend. Time trial on the circuits at Kings Park and the Road race up the M13 (45th cutting, past Norwood Shopping Mall to the bottom of Cowies and back) laps of this circuit.
Good luck and lets hope the rain stays away.
See you in the morning
Paula
