Ride Entry – 27th August 2010
by admin on Aug.28, 2010, under Uncategorized
Bike: Roadlite
Distance: 55 miles
Just the same cycling weekly route but this time fast, no stops, no messing about. It was really windy in places so quite hard at times but I did it 3.5 hours. 15.7mph average which might *seem* slow but don’t forget, it’s almost 1300m climbing.
My legs were properly goosed afterwards, don’t know if it’s because I’m a bit unfit or because I’ve been overdoing it, I have done 216 miles in the last week, but that’s just what normal people do. Fat people who eat nothing but Macdonalds probably ride 216 miles a week, all the time. Anyway, it screwed me up for any ride Saturday, when I did spot a gap in the rain I really couldn’t be arsed.
Hopefully I’ll get a ride in tomorrow and Monday , maybe commute in on Wednesday, I really should give a rest then till the race on Saturday though. I’m hoping I can try out my no camelbak on a mountain bike theory tomorrow, see if that helps my back, I’ll do some stretches too.
