Routes / TransAm trail - how fit
« on: April 30, 2016, 10:55:27 am »
Hello fellow and aspiring adventure cyclists!
Planning to complete the TransAm cycle trail this summer from July-Sept.
Based in UK and have had issues with injury in lead up so far.
Trying to gauge the 'level of fitness' required i.e. is it realistic to complete.
25 year old male with a reasonable cycling fitness. (But again what is 'reasonable'?)
Understand it's very general.
Just looking to get some ideas as there's nothing really only regarding the nature and extent of training cyclists complete prior to the TransAm (or have not yet found any).
Any feedback is helpful.
Cheers, john
