Rode the Vale of Belvoir III 200k yesterday. Reasonably flat, with a bit of headwind on the way back but nothing too bad. A bit of discomfort on the bike meant I couldn't really do the power I was hoping for, but that can be worked on.
This was the first test of the frame bag and power bank - ran a cable through the port out to my Garmin, which worked really well. It's a 5000mAh power bank and still showed full battery after a full day plugged in - the Garmin batteries are really small! Was nice not to have to fill my pockets with stuff, since I don't really like to stop if I can help it. Also surprisingly useful was the bit of masking tape on the stem with the mile counts for the checkpoints. Felt a bit lame doing it the night before, but I'll definitely do it again.
