I will be out there about six days prior to the event. We are making it a vacation with the TBP as the grand finale. I think our plan is to ride each mountain individually in preparation.
I live about a hour west of the hills of southern Indiana and plan to ride them weekly once the weather breaks.
I have already been riding indoors several hours a week along with shedding some weight.
Recently while in Denver I spoke to a guy at a bike shop who has done the TBP several times. He told me not to focus so much on the climbing but duration in the saddle grinding it out for long periods of time. He said just get many centuries in along with some climbing and show up and start peddling until your going down hill.
