So Grand Raid Cristalp veterans – how many miles do you normally do and how did you train for the event.
er, lots, and lots, and a few more. If your rides are flat, find hills, if there hilly, find more hills. when i last did it i was commuting 26miles a day plus weekend rides. I hope to do it next year, new job is 34miles a day and actually has a hilly option which should help.
it is something like 6km of climbing in 130km. you can get the climb total, what you can’t do is get the continuous climbing, the temperature changes or the altitude. Thing is it is not just about being able to ride the distance but you also have to make sure you don’t miss the cuts.
