Having the 205 as a key event might be a good focusing point, just to make sure I do enough volume in the run up to the summer. My other A goal is the Raid Alpine in early Sept for a week across the Alps, so although there are no days over 100 miles in that event, it does mean 6 days back to back of serious riding. Being fit enough to last 205 miles in June will be a very useful stepping stone to a good Raid as well. I know I could do it and it looks like I'll have enough time to train but I have really struggled to get solo rides of >3hrs done and much of my available time for long rides will be weekdays and hence solo. I need to develop the 'Felt' zone and get into the zone for long steady solo rides. I harbour a goal for a solo 100 so again need to build a plan to get these done - as spring draws closer it will be good to get out of the door early and spend the full morning riding at least once per week along with the club rides and FTP work.
Swampy - a season of 10's this year has taught me that I need to suffer. Our club circuit is a traffic free air field perimeter road so collapsing across the line unable to remember your own namelet alone talk, is a regular occurance....
