All geared.
When we did London to Monte Carlo we were into the wind for much of the first four or five days. This ride should have the wind (such that it is) behind us. West coast is hillier than the eat but this ride only has 2/3 of the climbing of our last adventure and most of that was in a two day period, I will post up the pdf of the ride manual with route when I get a chance.
hippy, I saw the nutritionist earlier. Will be receiving a diet plan tomorrow.
One key element is:
Normal evenings:
1/3 protein: 2/3 veg
Pre ride evenings:
1/4 "spelt pasta; 1/4 protein; 1/2 veg
Also, always eat raw before cooked and don't take in too much fluid with meals. Water dilutes gastric juices and impairs digestion.
