No commute today as put on call from Jury duty, so took the opportunity to get in some fixed 'training' miles before hopefully riding HDIJ. Out on Epping New Road to Epping, them Epping Upland, Nazeing, Waltham Abbey and back via Sewardstone, up Mott Street (at no more than 6 mph as I got stuck behind a mini digger-not sure if that made it harder or easier...), back down Lippits Hill, which was a bit sketchy with wet leaves everywhere, then home via Daws Hill/Bury Road and Rangers road to Epping New Road again.
32 odd miles in total, gearing felt good for Epping Forest and surrounds "hills" such as they are, don't feel too tired which is rather a suprise as I have barely ridden any distance since my daughter was born two and half years ago. HDIJ feels more realistic now.
