Week 7: If you got through last week OK you are in good shape and you will achieve your goal, this week is easier. Monday 26 - Rest day. Tuesday 27 - One and a half hours, undulating terrain at varied pace and gears, say Warrengate circuit. Wednesday 18 - Two hours, hilly circuit, ride the hills hard. Thursday 29 - One and a half hours, easy ride on a low/medium gear. Friday 30 - One hour as above. Saturday 31 - Club race, Francis Road, 12 noon, 50km. Sunday 1 - Three hour group ride. Points • Time to check your brakes, ensure they are well adjusted and that the brake rubbers clamp down on the wheel rim, not the tyre. • For riding in cold weather or wanting something to treat a sore muscle/strain, check out the 'Nature's Kiss' sports system massage creme range at your bike shop. • When riding in a group do your share of pace work at the front, do approximately 5 minutes in a head-wind and 15 minutes in a back-wind, but when racing it is approximately 200 metres and 500 metres.
