"Leave Friday around lunch, return Monday afternoon. Progressively longer and hard rides on Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday, each ride culminating with an ascent of Whiteface Mountain (3600 vertical foot gain). Monday recovery ride then return to NYC. This weekend will provide ""breakthrough"" training with respect to climbing. We will be stating in a small motel in Wilmington, NY with Cable TV and OLN so as not to miss any Giro action. Anyone interested?

How many miles are these rides, give or take a few?

Miles

Friday is just 8 miles, but an 8.4% average grade. Saturday is about 60 miles, Sunday is about 85 miles. I will post more exact details. Of course nobody would be obligated to finish each day with the Whiteface climb.
