Aloha,

I am attempting to carry out the south downs double spring next year. Basically 24hours, 200miles with ascents and decents. I completed land end to joe 2 years ago, 8 days, 100 odd miles per day. Had a break for about a year and started riding 4 months ago. I am comfortable doing 80miles, hilly on my road bike which I know is completely different to off road riding.

I suppose what I am looking for is someone who has experience of this event or similar or can help with my traning, what do i need to work up too. 150miles off road riding, 250miles on road riding. Would this be sufficient to get me prepared.

Look forward to your reply

Thanks
