After this mornings (Friday) run with the Dubai group I can firmly
say that things are going well. Out of this mornings 26 riders that
started the ride 10 did the longer ride of 100km into a hard wind.
The big ring was well used with 6 riders making it to Safra park
bridge together. For a current gauge I think all of these 6 riders
are easily capable of top 10 finish's in the up and coming race
season.
There is still no clear date for the start of the races which now
looks like it will be after ramadan.
Training rides are now held three times a week;
Fridays 6am - Meet outside limetree cafe.Two groups 60km(easy)/100km
(hard)
Sundays 7pm at Wolfis Bikes or 7.20pm at roundabout near Nad Al
Sheba next to new building with wind towers. 70-80km (hard/chain
gang).
Tuesdays same as Sundays but easier.
