EVENT DESCRIPTION
HPL Cycling is the premiere masters cycling team based out of Saskatchewan, Canada. Check us out at https://www.hplcycling.caOpens a new window.
Each week we will ride at an endurance pace with focus and control. Riding as a disciplined group, sticking with the yellow beacon is the goal. This ride is meant to be ridden at a zone 2 or low zone 3 heart rate, helping to build your fitness over time. On occasion your ride leaders may open up the group to sprinting, once the sprint is complete, please regroup on the yellow beacon.
The ride is speed based versus W/kg based. As a result the speeds will increase and decrease with the terrain of the course but effort will remain fairly consistent. The effort required to hold each categories indicated average speed is specific to the individual so choose the category that fits your ability. Each categories overall average speed is indicated in their descriptions.
Every 3 or 4 weeks the rides will increase in difficulty by changing the course to include more elevation. We challenge you to complete the full two hours. If you complete the ride you will unlock the HPL Cycling kit!
Chances are there will not be an official sweeper. As a result, if you need help to catch back up, send a message to the group and perhaps someone will help pull you back up. If you are not successful at this and find yourself dropped, stick with it and finish the ride off in your zone 2 heart rate. As your fitness grows you will be able to stay with the group longer and longer.
Once you complete the ride we recommend cooling off with some stretching from https://new.dynamiccyclist.comOpens a new window. Use coupon code HPLCYCLING for 25% off of their programming.
