The Routes
Your coaches will be leading you throughout the two routes below so you don’t need to worry about getting lost, however feel free to download the gpx files! Please note: each route has an extended option, each coach will decide if the extension is possible based on the pace of the group. You can access the gpx via googledrive in the link or directly from the files below
Fuel
PeakPunk: Each rider will receive a bottle from peakpunk and will have a chance to fill it up with peakpunk electrolyte powder before the rides! Additionally, peakpunk is sponsoring each rider with a bar. If you have unique preferences or dietary restrictions, please make sure to have your bases covered.
Lunch:
Vegan pasta with two choices of sauce by pastarazzi
ViviKola
Coffee by Kaffee Kranz
Bonus: Of course, we will have some potatoes and bananas on hand in case you would like to take some with you
Weather
It should rain this evening and overnight (Friday) and therefore it might be a little fresh in the morning. However, it should stay dry until mid-late afternoon with little patches of rain around 1600 with a chance of thundershowers. As you know the weather in Switzerland changes all the time but we are hoping we can make it back to The Hive after the second loop relatively dry. Safety in case of thunder and lightening will be the number one priority.
What to wear? If you're sensitive to being cold we recommend packing a neck tube/buff and knee and arm sleeves for the morning, especially since there will be some standing around in the morning and the workshop isn't super "sweat" intensive. In this case, if you're coming with a backpack, maybe throw in a fleece or puffy jacket for hanging around.
Those who tend to be warm will likely be in short-short all day with an extra vest and rain jacket in their pockets!
What to Pack
Bike lights
Rain jacket
Water bottle
Personal preference of snacks for rides (each participant gets a peakbar and peakpunk electrolyte drink +bottle)
Spare tube and co2 cartridge or pump – our guides are happy to help but make sure your bases are covered
Sunscreen
Sunglasses
Helmet
Bike and cycling shoes
Extra dry layers to change into (depending on the weather)
Warmer jacket to wear during lunch (depending on the weather)
Change of clothes for travel (personal preference)
