Under 5h Round Taupo Training Group
We believe there is a large number of cyclists with the ability and the desire to complete the lake Taupo Challenge in under 5 hours. We also believe that by getting these cyclists together, arming them with information and training as a group that there is a greater chance of acheiving this goal.
The under 5hr training group is fundamentally a training resourse for anyone who is aiming to complete the Lake Taupo Challenge in under 5 hours. Adequate fitness is only half the battle, the training group will help fill in the other important details aswell by making available training tips, nutritional advice, skills and technique seminars, a 16 week training program and targeted group rides.
