I'm starting to spaz just a bit. I had planned a good back to back 60+ last week, but btwn weather and family it just didn't happen. Laying low this week, just 10 miles easy then teaching spin tonight, and then maybe an easy 10-15 on Thursday.
I'm totally good for day 1, 105 miles (60/40 flat/hills), but really nervous about starting out on the hills day 2. I'm aiming for 15mph (cruise 17-18 on flats, lose a bit for the hills) average day 1, and if that feels good I'll bump it up for day 2. I just don't want to have nothing left for the return trip. Just about everybody I know who has ridden this has crashed or been too sore to finish day 2 on their first atempt. Unfortunately, I'm usually not smart enough to quit, so I will likely muttle through regardless, but I really want to get this done in manner I can be proud of.
Any nutrition or comfort tips anybody has would be greatly appreciated.
