I am a 22 year old student undertaking a cycle ride, for charity, from Cambridge UK, to Casabalnca in Morrocco in July 2010. As a relatively inexperienced long distance cyclists I was wondering if there was anyone out there that could help me with my training for this trip. We (I am doing it with 5 friends)plan to take around 5 weeks to complete this trip, with one rest day a week and we reckon averaging around 60-80 miles a day.
As for my current state of fitness, I would say it is not great! I play rugby occaisionally, maybe around 2-3 matches a month, with fairly light training mid week.
Anyway if there is anyone that could suggest some tips or places to go/look for tips on how to go about training for this trip that would be extremely helpful.
Many Thanks,
Nathaniel Gimson
