Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Need help training

Hey all.... I am new just got a new '02 Specialized Elite and am looking to partisipate in several rides this spring and summer. What I am looking for is a website or some info and/or schedule on building up some milage so I can partisipate in the Hotter than Hell 100 in August.
I spent last summer riding about 20-25 miles a day on my wal mart 10 speed so I am really looking foward to this years riding.

TIA

SirJoel,

Welcome aboard.
Check out Bicycle Texas for rides in the area.
There have been alot of articles about preparing for
a century (Bicycling magazine runs it yearly), I'll look
around to see what I can find and post link later.
There are a whole group of us looking to be at HHH
we will probably put something up in the Big Rides and
Schedules Forum a little later in the year.

Marty
