The Journey Begins…
This year Absolute Motion will be taking you on a very special journey! For the 2026 KAP sani2c, our Absolute Motion Training Plans are going virtual like never before.
Imagine riding the entire KAP sani2c route before you even line up at the start in Glencairn next May. Every year, we challenge ourselves to find new, inspiring, and innovative ways to keep you motivated on your journey to The KAP sani2c.
And this year, with the help of TrainingPeaks, the world’s leading endurance coaching platform, we’ve created something truly next level.
Train the Real Route — Virtually
TrainingPeaks now offers an indoor training app called TrainingPeaks Virtual, bringing two game-changing features:
- Real Route GPX Uploads: We can upload the actual GPX files of the 2026 KAP sani2c route — meaning you’ll feel every climb, every descent, and every twist and turn (even though you won’t see the real scenery).
- Free Access Every Tuesday: TrainingPeaks Virtual is FREE every Tuesday, and that’s when we ride!
Virtual Session Times (Starting 6 January 2026):
- 05:15
- 16:30
- 18:15
If you miss the time slot, you won’t be able to join that specific virtual route session
— but don’t worry, we’ll load an alternative workout for you.
How the Journey Unfolds
First, we ride sections of the route. Then, we train on the route. Closer to the event... we race parts of the route. Imagine arriving at the bottom of "Iconic" knowing you’ve already “ridden” it. Sure, the real Iconic is tougher, but the confidence of knowing you can handle that gradient is priceless.
Don't have a smart trainer? Your plan will adapt.
