A bit of bike servicing tonight after my run
bargain of the week has to be my new bike stand from DECATHLON
its very sturdy and seems the same as those priced at over a hundred quid.
£50 bargain
Im trying to remember what my best time is for a hundred miles.
So many different factors and being that i never time myself in races ive never really checked.
Its a total different experience doing 100miles on your own in shit weather to sitting in a bunch ,so times shouldnt really be taken too seriously.
Ive had rides where ive easily done 18/19mph and some where ive suffered at 14mph.
Its funny though but i once did 157miles as a youngster on mighty white bread alone. I will never forget it . I rolled the slices with a rolling pin to get more in my jersey but ended up a nightmare as i hit bad weather and it turned to gloop but i just kept reaching behind and eating a bit more.
Just like then though i still say forget your fancy pants sportsdrinks you still cannot beat coca cola as a pick me up.
