In this post Kerry Bircher, cycling coach at Revolution Cycling has created a training plan which is ideal if you a relatively new to cycling, or haven’t turned the pedals for a few years and are planning to embark on a 100 mile challenge or sportive this year.

Not quite sure what a 100 mile sportive entails? Get the lowdown here. 

The training plans are carefully structured and designed to allow you to fit your training around work, family and a life outside of cycling. Remember that at the start of any new fitness pursuit, it’s important to be patient and gradually build up your training, and by the end of the 8 weeks you should be ready to tackle 45 miles, and even enter a ‘training’ sportive in preparation for the big 100 MILES.

Enjoy your training!
