Today I went out on the MS. I pumped the WTB Horizons up to 2.75bar and put Liz’s bar bag on, threw in a few bits of the MiLs awesome flapjacks and filled the drinks bottles with water and headed off. It was dry, but the roads were still wet from last nights storm. After 54km, 346m of climb and 1hr56mins I was at the beach at Dunwich and outside the cafe. Which is where I stayed as it had just shut. I ate some flapjack and headed back for home. I overtook a couple of roadie types going up a hill. I was overtaken by a chap on a TT bike on the bypass. I ate some more flapjack. I got home, I made dinner for us all. Chachouka with a nice soda bread loaf. In total I rode 110km, climbed 620m, was out for 4hrs3mins, ate 3 flapjacks, drank 1250ml of water and averaged 27.1km/h. I also got 45 medals on The Strava, but strangely this no longer excites me. The Surly didn’t miss a beat and I’m really starting to wonder if I need my road bike.
