  • How'd you do? Seen Twitter. Well done.

    I bonked at 2h30 like never before. Bit of a fuck up on my part. Need to address my eating in days before, as used same feeding as last 100 on day. Lesson learnt.

  • DNF for the bonk? You should've crawled home you lazy git! :P

    I started maybe a bit quick, spent the middle two hours in a finely balanced fight between keeping club record pace, stopping my leg going numb and overusing my glutes until they ping. I had so much left in the tank I rode the last 5mi like it was a 10. Probably a good couple of minutes to take off if I can sort my leg out but I'll probably not ride another 100 this year.

    My leg is still numb now which makes me think it might be nerve-related and not vascular after all. Might tell my physio this wonderful news and see what they say.

    10min off my PB and club record so even with the 2L of snot I ejected in the first lap I did what I wanted to do. Pretty happy with it, considering.

  • Shame about the leg. Maybe amputation? But congrats.

    I rode to 92miles then took the turn to fulbourn. CBA!

    I'm not sure what went wrong, used same feeding strategy as last 100. I can only think, the early start meant I had a small breakfast and didn't eat enough in days before.

  • Congrats. My club record got beaten twice today, sadly on neither occasion by me because I wasn't racing.

    Speaking of club records, my club's record for 12 hours is just under 240 miles. That's starting to look like low hanging fruit...
