A good turn out this Sunday for the ride out to Westerham, Huw, Amy, Paul and Robbie, Cadence King, Andrew, Jonny Whizz, Gav and me.
From the off this was an antisocial ride
, huw has had a week off the bike and he was letting everyone know, my legs were absolutely knackered from saturdays ride in the surrey hills- again being kicked around the @ss by Gav and Paul- 4 hours ride in the morning, then a 2 hour ride in the afternoon on the MTB with a mate up from Bristol
A good sleep on sat. night tho!
I was off the back on all climbs (no change), and at times felt really tired. Crockham hill was a good test, Andrew reaching for gears he never had-even before it got to the steep bit- he still beat me up to the top tho by a good few minutes. Gav was in fine fettle today as he was yeasterday proving that he had good legs for climbing after all that marmotte training.
The way Huw went up the hill-( which is more like a speed-ramp considering what he has been riding) was for me quite disheartening, it looked like the big ring all the way up
-FYI i twiddled up in 40/26.
Even the supurb carrot cake didn't refresh me and it was a tired old man that wound his way home for a Magners ( which did refresh
) and a nice kip in the garden.
