Just 2 miles. Upto Mossley Cross and back. 12:46. About 500ft ascent

[jodg]

5 miles over very rough terrain Chest deep bracken, waist deep heather, thigh deep billberry.

got back to car, NO KEYS

Went round again in evening but no joy

To make matters worse I've got a throat infection and can hardly swallow.

You been snacking on those ferns again? How did you get home then???

You weren’t by any chance recceing this Monday’s summer series race were you?

Just got back from a recce of Mondays race, from CP 1 to 3 is pretty much as you described, at least the last half is very runable

Had flash backs to the “Broomhead Bash”

Roughly 5.5 mile 1000’ ascent

Good pub near the finish and has a great descent for the last two miles with only Baily hill to climb.

I need a good result to get my yellow jersey back. Only three races left, I'm on hols for one and won't get a good result on the last one...
