I wish I was a strong enough rider to think that going 200 miles a week
before racing 56 would help my performance LOL I think I'll opt for a more,
uh, traditional taper...LOL
Have fun,
Nancy
Hi, somehow I've managed to get on your email list for the double century (?why?), and I am starting to get interested in it. When is it? How many of you are...

Yes, but only the bike part. I was injured this winter, and couldn't run. So was a friend, so we formed a team... Kind of good luck/bad luck thing [Non-text...
We can compare experiences with and without a proper taper as I am planning to do the Tinman and the double too. I have severe doubts about this plan but...
