oooooof!! I thought I was doing well with a 5.28!! Still first century and was aiming for sub 6 so thats good.
Thought I rode past one of you guys, blue pinarello - ladies jersey, but turns out that is a combination of Doctor Cake and Jazzythumper so glad I didn't say anything!
good day all round I thought, closed roads were excellent.
Highlights for me:
Chain ganging the first 35miles on closed roads and feeling like a pro, hand signals and everything
getting rid of the devil within at one of the water stops, felt a million bucks after laying that stank down
The long, awesome decent after Leith hill
The extraordinarily happy man just after the long awesome Box Hill decent ringing double bells constantly
Seeing the faaamily half way up wimbledon hill
hitting 40 mile an hour down Putney high street and bossing the hell out of the last 6 miles, like a boss, bossing his boss. believe.
:)
all in all a good ride! Waaay too much sugar consumed though, if I don't have an ulcer now I'll be very surprised!
