This will be my first time participating in the RTCC, I have to admit that I am a bit nervous about the ride but also very excited! I did not sign up with a partner or team so I don't really know what to expect! I am 22 years old from Waterloo so if there are any fellow riders in the area who want to continue training together please let me know!
Also any tips/advice from vets about the ride would be appreciated - what you wish someone told you before your first ride!?
Several suggestions based on 6 Rides: work on hills, the harder the better; get butt cream, and use it copiously; riding shorts are imperative; if you can ride 3 to 4 hours at a stretch, two days in a row, you're ready. Enjoy!
