    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    No sun Han although no wind either. A good 25k ride home for me. Think it must be the quickest each way of the year so far.
    Starting to feel a bit better on the bike, pushing more time in the big ring, and working better out of the saddle.
    Also recovery time is vastly improving.
    Overall the fitness is coming on a treat, lose a couple more pounds and more time on the bike is all good.

    It is so much nicer and easier riding in the light and relative warmth, isn't it Stagger?

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Skived again for a good hour... on the old crosser this time, on the road to get to Black Hill... 6x hill reps on the way, attacking the climbs hard... into the red... Then I played on a muddy and rocky bridleway... I even managed to not go @rse over tit in the ford, unlike last time... Mind, a better choice of line AND skinny tyres helped me here I think. That and the fact that I didn't have spectators LOL

    Great little play and useful training me thinks

    I do now have a third bike that needs cleaning though :thunbdown:

    I seem to have entered Mountain Mayhem 24 hour solo and Bristol Bikefest 12 hour mixed pairs :w00t: and I thought I was a roady, but so far all events and races I have entered are MTB ones LOL
