INEOS Grenadiers Virtual Training Camp Week Two
Two different sessions to try, hosted on the Temple and Towers route on Makuri Island. Both look hard and uniquely different.
The “Thomas” has several sustained efforts, probably more suited to the TT or Climber type riders, whilst the “Van Baarle” is certainly designed with the Sprinters in mind.
