Bike Clinic & Cycling Hill Repeats with Jim – 6:30 pm – Mission Viejo

Bike Clinic and Cycling Hill Repeats. JIM MANTON will be coaching us to power the hills with good gearing and bike handling.  Training distances according to race-goal plans and experience.  Hills are fun!

Work the Hills!!!  Work = uphill. Recover = downhill!

AGENDA:

• Hill repeats are 2 miles up the hill - and - 2 miles down the hill!
• Paved, bike trail.  No cars (well... not legally anyway!)
• Keep repeating to fulfill your training goal or you run out of time!
• It's just more fun to do it with others, right?
• Time your uphills only.  The downhill is for recovery.  Take it safely.
• Finish before dark.  This location gets dark very fast - no street lights.

BRING:

• WATCH or Time Piece.  You will time your UPHILLS!
• Bike, helmet and all cycling gear
• Fuel/Water
• Recovery Fuel/Nutrition

DIRECTIONS:

• There is no specific address for the El Toro Trail.  Use the closest office building address and look diagonally across the street for the entrance.
• Address:
  El Toro Trail - T2 for OC Triathlon
  20532 El Toro Rd
  Mission Viejo, CA 92692
• We call it T2 because it is Transition 2 for the OC Triathlon and Duathlon.

CAUTION:

There is a narrow entrance to the trail and you will cross the path utilized by cyclists and runners.

NOTE:

There are no bathrooms at the parking lot.  You may use the McFadden Historic House Porta Potty near the top of the trail down a designated driveway or local shops.
