2 hours out with my 2 boys all on road bikes and their good mate on a mountain bike. 14.5 mile but we had some great laughs and managed to stumble up a proper bike race.

I know it doesn't compare with the real cyclists on here but did my longest ride for a couple of years and that was almost all on L-L canal towpath - Rodley to Riddlesden & back (c27 miles in a leisurely 2.5hrs) including the obligatory ice cream stop at 5-Rise
All the best bike rides have cake or ice cream MT!
I'm off out now - there was an ice cream van at the half-way point when I drove past earlier!
Damn! The ice cream van had gone. 32 at 17.9mph. Grrrr.... Clearly not a real cyclist...

Took the knackered old MTB up to Nant yr Aran again today, there's a long hill (20+ minutes) so rode that uphill hard 3 times and freewheeled back down slowly (got no helmet or decent brakes). Total 67 minutes uphill effort - about 2 hours riding in total.

I ran up Pen-y-fan from Cwm Lwch, via the obelisk and Corn Du, then streight off the side... The hardest and most technical bit of fell running I have done since damaging my ankle at the OMM last year...
Ankle was good, my quads are now screaming... so no bikeride tonight
2 hours out on the CX bike with a few hill reps up the Coppice thrown in including a steep carry section. Got to try and true my back wheel up now after a half hearted bunny hop caused the back wheel a little collision damage.

Well my last ride was 56miles with my wife finishing up at starbucks at giltbrook.
bug at the weekend but paid to high mileage training and Oakworth haul fell race. Steady 2 hours on X bike tonight, felt very sluggish.
