2 weeks and counting

So, I have 2 weeks to go until the Australian 24hr solo Championships.

My training hasn't exactly gone to plan. A recent tree hugging incident left me with a twisted back and a sore neck so I had a whole week off the bike which also meant weddings, buck nights and a whole lot of party. I'm pretty sure this is the best way to taper for a race.

My race plan looks like the following, Race the 6 hrs, come night time it will be a case of lap my mates and then continue throughout the night with them and then in the morning hopefully I'll still be on the bike, with the help of a hot coffee and some breakfast (real food), come in to the finish in the top 10.

I'm planning to go through a-lot of Heed, Gels and Powerbars.
