The best way to have a fun, safe ride to Austin is to train properly Starting at Tully Stadium, the first day covers 100 miles and the second day from La Grange to Austin is 80 miles for a total of 180 miles so adequate training is a necessity to be able to complete this ride. But with training it is certainly doable for even the beginning rider. Training should start in January beginning with shorter rides and gradually building up mileage each week to longer rides. Fortunately in the Houston area there a number of training ride opportunities available in the months leading up to the BP MS 150 Bike Tour. Supplemental training such as spinning classes at your local health club are also excellent conditioning for the ride. What Gear Do You Need for Cycling?
