Uh oh, it's getting closer and closer! We did do a little ride in the Dyfi Forest last night on a few of ther trails, but nothing much. The plan on Sunday (one week before the event proper) is to have a ride around the whole Dyfi Enduro course though. Should be a few of us doing it as well. Al.

Damn this just makes me realise how unprepared I am for the Dyfi. I’ll try to get some 30+ mile rides in over the next 2 weeks.

Managed a nice ride yesterday 29 miles in total and lots of climbing, but quite a bit of it was on the road so it wasn’t too tough.

Only 2 weeks to go…. Arrrrrggghhhh!!!

Cool… I was out last night for a little ride, but haven’t done any long rides for a while which is a bit if a worry. My chest still hurts a bit now and then so I haven’t been able to push it at all and step up the training, but as long as I get around I’ll be happy.

I’m not sure of the exact distance but I think you’ll be looking at around 65km or 40 miles for the Enduro.

I’m hoping to get out for a ride later today somewhere and over the weekend too.

ah, I managed to do the rheidol trail from aber and fitted in a quick blast of the summit loop round nant on the way back down the A44, one of my mates told me the enduro was 60 miles, so I’ve been pushing 40 mile rides, and only found out today that its only around 27 miles :s

hope your training’s going well still

Still going OK… Managed a quick ‘core workout’ (Sit ups, Press ups and Burpees) yesterday and a night ride around the Summit Trail at Nant yr Arian.

Have a swim planned for today and then some bikle rides with Jay at the weekend.

Well, I managed short ride around the Pendam Trail yesterday. I took it easy to start with, did push it a little at times and got my heart rate up to a decent level. I think I should take it relatively easy this week and then get back into it with a vengeance next week.
