sitting on train with my proverbial feet up. feel much better this year than last, despite the inclement weather.
lovely home section from mayfield, a very favourable wind indeed.
had to break out the 24 up hogtrough, but other than that lovely day a wheel.
Highlights included smashing crowborough hill after last years walkies and chiddingly food stop.
Low would be front tyre blowout after less than 2km (always carry rubber kids) and the creaky bottom bracket from 80km that I was sure was going to seize at any moment. (this sorted itself after about 50km when the chain dropped, so presumably something is worn out in the drivetrain - may a well change it all really. got bb and sprocket, flip vs chainring, just pick up new chain. sounds like a plan.
