Training Ride Two

First early morning ride, this time the Welford loop, so only one small and gradual hill to circumnavigate this time. If only the tectonic plates were quite this inactive in France – the race would be a doddle.

Mind you it was my first day on the bike with any form of cross wind and it’s clear that no matter what you do riding into the wind is hard yakka and is going to be my most hated of training conditions.

Clearly my greatest asset and disadvantage remains my weight. 95 kgs is still too much to be hauling up a hill, but its great fun of the way down.

16 miles completed today.
