I know there are a lot of variables to this question but I am new to cycling and am hoping to qualify for PBP this year.
I am 52, reasonably fit and bloody minded.
I hope to start training in the next couple of weeks by riding to work and home, 12 miles each way and rides at the weekend. Just to make it interesting I will be riding a Bacchetta Giro 26 and I have never ridden a recumbent 2 wheeler before.
I have to complete the qualifying rides quite quickly in order to apply to ride PBP.
The timetable now reads as follows:
200km 19th March
300km 2nd April
400km 21st April
600km 14th May
I realise that these rides are crammed in tight but there is obviously a deadline in order for me not miss the bus.
Any suggestions or comments are gladly welcomed.
