Preparing and training for the NCAC
is one of those good news, bad news sort of things.
The bad news is that riding 360 miles in four days
can be a pretty challenging endeavor for even the most
experienced riders. But the good news is that, with
some dedication to the cause and commitment to a training
program, even someone who starts out having never biked
farther than around the corner can complete the NorCal
AIDS Challenge in fine style.
No, it won’t be easy. And yes,
it will take up a great deal of your time and energy
over the next several months. And yes, at times, especially
if you’re a new cyclist, you’ll hurt and
be sore in some new places and in some novel ways.
But let me assure you that it will all be worth it
in May as you make that last turn toward the State
Capitol building in Sacramento with more than 100 of
your new friends, having completed what only seems
impossible from where you’re sitting right now,
in front of your computer.
The following information will help
you get started on the right track for your journey.
We’ll
be adding onto it over the next few months so make
sure to check back here regularly. If you need help
with anything not covered below, check with one of
the mentors.
