Fantastic clean, dry lanes with a low traffic volume made all the more pleasant by clear skies and sun. Cracking ride, probably 70 miles and 4 hours.
Ady, i think if i was to do 70 miles, my legs would be jelly for weeks.
Sometimes when i set off to work (its only 3 miles so i bomb it there and back each time) my legs are like lead and it seems as though ive done a 100 miler the day before. I cant understand it.

Do you eat much whilst your on your 70 miler etc rides.



A 2 mile sprint for me today whilst i gave the fecking lawn mover chance to have a think about itself as it didnt want to start after not using it since when ever it was last!
