Chiang Mai - The Stats
If you've been following my blog then you know that I like to do my winter training in Chiang Mai, Thailand. This is the fifth year in a row that I come to this place over Christmas and New Year's. I love the trails, terrain, nature, the uphills and the downhills here.
This year I was here for 14 days in all and I rode 13 of those days (one day rained away). Every second day was a mountain ride day and every other a flat recovery ride day.
The totals are as follows:
- Days on the bike: 13
- Hours moving time: 54.5 hours - 4h 15m per day
- Kilometers ridden: 873.6 km - 67.2 km per day
- Vertical meters climbed: 14350 m - 1104 m per day
My Two Benchmark Hills
There are two hills that I've ridden several times since I started doing my winter training in Chiang Mai. Both are long and steep. This year I managed to improve my times up both hills by a good margin, in fact it's a more significant jump in performance than I've ever had before
