After getting a serious butt kicking on the bike at Mountaineer, I decided a little bike focus was in order but want to have fun with it. The plan is to ride my bike every day of the Tour de France and “follow” the route. The least amount of time to ride per day is 60 min (Just don’t take advantage of that too much). Time trial on tt days, hills on mountain stages and some good sprints to city limit signs for the flats. On Saturday I am doing a 20K TT. If anyone else wants to join in the fun and post their progress that would be cool.
A friend of mine does this every year. He rides a percentage of teh route every yr. (last year I think he did 40%). It’s a pretty neat idea. HE too does TT’s and hills when they happen in the Tour. The other cool thing is that he rides into Paris, Ontario on the final day for breakfast with his wife.
