Each Sunday for the next 10 weeks we will be holding a Gran Fondo training session in Kings Park open to everybody. We will meet at 6am up on Frasers Ave in Kings Park, where the actual start line will be on race day. We ride hard until the exit of Kings Park, then regroup and neutralise the Mounts Bay road segment. This is done for safety to minimise our exposure on a busier road. Regroup times will be worked out on the day and as much as we will try not to leave people behind, we also can't have the group waiting long times between laps.
The idea is to complete 6 full laps of the slightly abbreviated circuit. We will not be heading all the way into the city and up Williams St as there are 8 traffic lights to negotiate which just complicates things and potentially makes it less safe. Please see map for details.
This is generally an endurance session, see how hard you can do Malcolm St after 5 times up, how is your nutrition going, do you have enough fluids. Training sessions are the time to experiment, and get things right for race day.
As usual, these training sessions are open to everyone, not just SPR members, and not just people that are doing the Fondo. Just remember that they are SPR club run sessions and we expect you to respect our volunteers and obey all road rules.
