Well yesterday I finally managed to get onto a club ride... the first one this year, and the only ride I've done that's longer than 15miles since December 28th. We rode just under 80km, in around three and a quarter hours. I found the last hour hard, and guess who was at the back of the group of eight!!
The bad weather and Christmas festivities has certainly taken it's toll on me. One things for sure, I need to get the legs going for next Sunday's sportive or I could be setting myself up for some extreme embarrassment!
Maybe I'm spending too much time fixing and building bikes... and not enough time riding? Oh well, the weather's improved and with the Rapha Condor training camp coming up in in three weeks, I should be fit by the end of February.
The Bianchi was finally finished today. Shame I can't keep it, I've kinda fallen in love with it during the build (big mistake I know). Anyway it looks good and rides lovely, I hope my friend Marco likes it. The test of time will tell as he intends to use it on next weeks Hell of the Ashdown. I'll be praying that it's all okay, although I've checked it and double checked it. All the fixings are in place with the correct torque settings, so I'm sure it will be fine. I'll report back to the blog after!
Okay watch out for up and coming info on the Rapha Condor Sharp training camp in Malaga, and the Race across America. Both of which I'm heavily involved with!
