Practice Rides ...

The challenge is not only a test for "pushing the body, but its also for pushing the mind" and to prepare both mind and body before an extensively challenging ride like this, the experts from the GMC group have designed some practice rides months before the event. This will not only help all participants to get together long before the event but will also give them a practice run, and they will get an idea as to what to look forward to and how to tackle with hurdles if any. 

   

  These practice rides mostly consist of less formidable rides to near by locales, like for the 2010 GMC practice rides started from as early as July and were done to near by locales such as "Nandi Hills [ 120kms ]" "Savandurga [ 110 kms ]"  " Thattekere [ 120kms] " " Huthridurga [ 120kms] " these helped the riders gauge their own stamina and build up on it, gauge their strengths and weaknesses and works towards the goal.
