Notes:
My first real "moutain" riding. Followed a route suggested in a magazine. Not great as the climbs and descents were too rocky to ride for anyone but a pro. Me having to push the bike up most of them led to the shameful average speed.
Made me realise I have a long way to go before I can claim to be fit. Lost count of the number of times I stopped for breath. Mind you, it was the hottest day of the year.
Still some way to go... |
