excellent overview, kudos to you. you know the saying, 'eat before you're hungry drink before you're thirsty.' and you're right its not about the end more the journey. of course you try your best however ultimately its about health, fitness and having fun the bicycle does all that.
Without a doubt, the very best video on Mallorca 312. Informative, well-shot, great editing and a well chosen soundtrack. 10/10. Thanks for putting it together.
@@lonecyclistYes, I was lucky enough to get a ticket. I’m following the Wahoo SYSTM 200 Mile Gravel plan in preparation. Hopefully it will be sufficient!
Thank you for your video. I signed up for 2023. How much were you training before you go? Do you have an estimation on how many km per week? Regarding the feeding station what kind of food and liquid do they offer?
Hi Rafael! Congrats on your sing up! You’re the lucky one, the event sold out in hours and I missed it! 😭 I hope you’ll have a great ride. Regarding my training, I didn’t do any special one. I generally cycle a lot (over 1000 km a month). That includes my Wahoo SYSTM (Sufferfest) workout, riding outside and a monthly endurance (over 160 km) ride. But from my experience you should focus on climbing sessions (lower cadence under FTP) and endurance rides (3-5 hours). It depends on how much time you’ve got but I’m a fan of a comprehensive training plan, balancing various aspects. I’m do apologies if that sounds vague, though. Regarding the food and drinks, I recall I wasn’t too happy with it. They served sandwiches, you could fill up water and grab some gels (not many tastes too chose from). The best thing you can have is a an ice cold can of Coke - that was a real life saver for me. I hope that helps! Good luck!
Well, it's crowded just for a few kms, then it spreads out (especially on the first climb). In such a long race, I find it supportive to have some people around.

Thank you very much! I'm happy you like it. Are you going this year?

Super cool! 💪🏻 See there then!
That was good. Very useful. Food and water seem to be key. Nice effort. 👍
Thanks! Are you going this year?
Yes. I’ve fine the 167 three times with my wife and daughter but along to do the full 312 this year. I’m diabetic so a fuel strategy is key for me.
@@moobaz8675 oh yeah, you have to plan your food carefully. I’m sure you can make it! Good luck and see you in the start line!
I’m booked to do this in 23’ your tips for the race are much appreciated 👌🏼
That’s great! Good luck! 💪🏻 For sake of curiosity, are you bringing your own bike or renting there?
Wonderful riide.

It's a stunning place to ride, but with all those people? No thanks!
