41km all in today, work and back. Thought I'd be slow after 2 weeks off, but managed a dhAlf decent time averaging 26 kmph for the day. Not hugely fast, just better than hoped for
Question for the road bike racers :-)
My partner has been out of running with a foot injury since October last year :-(. He misses fell running and is becoming a man of very sad disposition!! (understatement)! He rides his bike to keep his fitness up and to commute to work (Hope Valley to Sheffield and back) and probably does about 250/300 mls a week. I suggested road racing to give his competitive side a bit of fun. He has joined British Cycling, has his road racing licence and is in the introduction category. His first race is entered in May. However, not quite sure how you get those points to go up a category? Know it's 10 for the 1st move and it gets lot harder but how do you get awarded points in the race?
Hope you can help
:-)
Ordinary 17km commute each way.
(steady run at midday, swim and cycle tomorrow)

.....................turned into a 6m push the bike home after i discovered a flat back tyre on leaving work and no spare inner tube, doh:o
Good walking training for the Lakeland 100 though:thumbup:
I'm back on the bike.
25k this morning trying not to exceed 144bmp or zone 3
Just crept over twice but I'm happy again ans sure the Doc would be.
Nice warm sunny morning but the rain has just started now so I've been lucky.
Sorry to hear your miss fortune Steve, but you appear to have brushed it off.
Get some tube bought off ebay, you know it makes sense.
