52 miles with a couple of good climbs.

Bizarrely, I bonked at about 40 miles despite being well fuelled. I'm at a loss to suss why it happened, but I'm putting it down to the remnants of the bug I had/the end of a weeks training/getting very cold. Anyhow, I came off the bike as I lost concentration & got in the crap gravel at the side of the road put a good dint in my helmet & picked up some road rash.

Have taken my old - no suspension - mountain bike that I used to commute with off the wall of my garage & put some knobbly tyres on it in preparation of my first cyclocross race next weekend. Never been off-road on a bike in my life :w00t: . Should be a hoot.
