Well done Hann, impressive effort!
As for me on Dragon Ride duty, that was very hard, very hard. very hot day and a head wind all the way home!
Hit 100 miles/3,000m at about 6hrs 38mins, so just slipping under Cav's time!! A bit pooped but still climbing strongly and all seemed ok until after a pretty hectic 15 mins of descending including a difficult time over a cattle grid at 35mph
Then everything fell apart, think my vestibular system got addled on the rough bits and my eyes just wouldn't focus, thought I was going to fall off throw up or both
So I had to stop for a little sit down with only another 12 miles to go, going downhill and on familiar territory, aargh! Resuscitated by a marmite sandwich and a drink I managed to get going again at a steady survival grimble. Went past one rider who lost it on a difficult bend and hit a car, he seemed ok though the car driver was pretty distraught!
So all I need to do now is repeat the 100miles+ and 3,000m climbing on 4 successive days and that will be Tour de Galles
