Tell us about your weekend ride

I dug deep into my cave of hell, kicked open the suitcase of pain, draped the cape of misery over myself and got it done.

So, I'm still not sure if I actually enjoy riding my bike for days on end but I went into it with a few mental exercises to try and did pretty well until I had a complete meltdown about 3am Sunday, but then I slept on someone's cardboard recycling in their drive until the sun came up and felt much better. Formed a new finish plan so I didn't miss the time cut and finished it off pretty well.
So, I'd rate it a success.
Also tested some new kit which was cool and found myself picking better bivvy spots which may or may not be useful in TABR (I think hotels might be better for my sleep quality, with a superlight bivvy as a backup).
