After last week’s route, sanity has returned as we head to the spiritual home of the Gain Train for two fast and very flat laps of Tempus Fugit. At 37km with 32m of climbing, all riders and groups should be comfortably under the hour and groups will stay tightly blobbed.
The Gain Train is now a Thursday evening Hotchillee institution and a brilliant and social way to get a top quality high intensity workout in. The original Hare and Hounds format with three Classes set off at 5-minute intervals format covering 35-40km on a variety of routes. The typical Class Paces are:
First Class (B): 3.5 – 4 w/kg. Engine – Nik Cook
Second Class (C): 2.5 – 3 w/kg
Buffet Class (D): <2.4 w/kg. Engine – Paul ‘Axel’ Foley
To join the ride, simply open the link below (ideally using the Companion App but you can also join on your web browser) and select your Class.
