Black Hanky Boys Tour de Busan

The much talked about Tour de Busan is getting closer to realization in 2014. The challenge is a 560km ride from Seoul to Busan (or vice versa) along the new four rivers dam project. The dates are firming up from the 19th April to the 22nd April. That gives us about 10-11 weeks to prepare and get the mind and body into shape for this endurance event comprising 8 x 70km sessions over 4 days or 140km/day. Danny has committed with the acquisition of a new high spec Chris Boardman AR9.4 bike.  Sean will need to unpack the Trek and get onto the gym bikes for  winter training. John will need to drop a few kg and get out on those Melbourne bikeways !

Will be getting the blog up to date with resources and information links in the coming days. Access is open to the BHB team so feel free to add your piece.

According to the Telegraph the bike does matter and it needs to be a Boardman!
