New Forest Sportive

4hrs 53min ride time. 5 mins off a Gold, bah! It's not too bad, considering I had trouble finding anyone going at a similar pace to work with, so it was pretty much 83 miles on my own.

Fortunately the weather was good, little wind and there wasn't much climbing involved (I think the inner ring was only used for the short 25%!). It was a case of head down, dodge the odd New Forest pony and try to stay upright over the cattle grids.

I used to live in Brockenhurst, very jealous you get to ride around there.
