TDN Training

Training Tips

We can't emphasize enough how proper mental and physical training can enhance your experience on Tour de Nebraska. Weather also plays an important role in this physical and mental challenge. To prepare, you should be riding your bike at least 3-4 times a week: 20-30 miles on short rides and a 30-50 mile ride on the weekends once a week at least 4-6 weeks before the tour begins on June 19.

Training Rides

Check your area for local training rides. The Great Plains Bicycling Club of Lincoln hosts a number of great rides. Check out: www.greatplainsbikeclub.org

Use Your Gears

Your bike has gears. Use them. You are aerobically much more efficient and your body will last longer if you "spin" (70-90 revolutions per minute--rpm) in easy gears. Almost every year, we see folks grinding big gears--and end up with ice on their knees at the end of the day. This is not a race, so go your own pace and enjoy!
