to become fat adapted you need to train in a glycogen depleted state. there are various ways of achieving that. Riding long slow distances to eventually deplete glycogen stores and not refueling on the ride, keeping the body in a ketotic state through diet, or intermittant fasting. Be very careful and bring fuel. You will likely bonk hard at least a few times if you aren't used to controlling your training intensity
