Training for the Tour de Palm Springs 2023

 
If you've dreamed of completing a Century cycling event or have completed one and thought to yourself 'There's got to be an easier way', this may be the training event you're looking for!

In its 12th year, the 10-week program (culminating with the Tour de Palm Springs on week 11) guides both the novice and experienced cyclist through important topics like nutrition, hydration, bike fit, equipment and gear. Learn pace lining, skills of group riding, recovery both on and off the bike, and the psychology required of endurance athletes.
 
Participants will be asked to commit to weekly training goals and weekend group rides beginning December 3rd, 2022 and culminating on February 11th, 2023. Come join fellow RWBTC Centurions as they lead you to a victorious Tour de Palm Springs event.

Please send emails to Dianna Alwerth, Group Coordinator at centurytraining@rwbtc.org to submit your request to join the group. 
 
Please remember that during these rides you are obligated to follow instruction and respect the others also preparing for the ride.
Announcements will be made via the Century Training forum, This forum is available exclusively to members of the Century Training group so SIGN UP now!  If you do not sign up, you will not receive emails and updates regarding the century training program. 
 
The first ride will occur on the weekend of December 3rd, please check the forum for details.
