  • My longest ride fixed by at least 100km. Went way too quick on the traffic-free second half of the ride out, being pulled along by a bunch of RCC people. Was like ThNRC on steroids and amphetamines. 73gi felt just right.
    Fresher legs would've been better for fussballclub's return route. I was suffering with nausea from around Chelmsford, and despite four sleeps (beach, golf course near Ipswich, pub garden near Colchester and grass verge at Chigwell Row) was reduced to about 10kmh coming into London. Round trip 25 hours. More chamois cream next time. Not used to riding for so long in such glorious weather.

    @fussballclub - A scenic part after Ipswich. Quite bumpy tho.

  • I just took lazy option and rode straight back on same route... It mostly came down to being 10k shorter.
    Was fine up until everything started hurting... And then the roads through Epping are horrendous going back into London on a Sunday evening.
