not golden rules lar... if you want to perform, some sacrifices have to be made lor.... like leave work earlier, no watering hole sessions, no go cinema with GF, no fancy dinners and other time wasting activities...
at least with RPM sessions... you can still walk out to the gym and do some upper body work right?
300KM should be do-able... i used to manage 200K per week... purely on weekends...
saturday and sunday morning rack around 30K, looping around the local molehills
then evenings go for a bit of flats, ride through kota damansara -> kampung subang -> bukit jelutong -> subang -> sunway -> NPE -> old klang road -> loop around bangsar a bit and back home... should rack up more than 50Ks easily...
imagine doing some of the weekday morning or night shorter rides, kesas for instance.. 300K should be no problem at all... it's all the will of your mind...
now, i am jus lazy...no excuses, plainly my fault...
ehhh.... it can't be death roads all around your place right???
Foreveralone here. so most of your mentioned above not applicable.
in coming days, weeks, and months to go, shall see a lot more cyclists cycle on the road...
