I'm about as avid a cyclist as one can be with two very young kids and a new home. My typical ride is a solo of around 25 miles including rolling hills and the occasional short climb.
I'm dedicating the coming year to prepare for a September ride. This ride will be my first century although I've gone as far as 65 miles on solo rides before. What will be especially challenging is the terrain. Take a look at the elevation map below.
Training suggestions? Try to do at least one, maybe two centuries before I tackle this? I'm a little intimidated, but determined!
Thanks for the input!
