Audax 200km BRM Gauteng 24/6/2012

[Speed Racer]

Today we undertook the 200km 'Dasville Dash - Benoni-Heidelburg-Dasville and home. Spent the first 50km trying to catch the Cyclelab Race Team. Sorry only got Anthony (?) and Jay's names. Rode with them to Dasville. Thanks, Guys. Great experience riding with such a strong bunch. Seriously chilly day. Blew up after this. Rode on my own to H'burg, where I met up with Underachiever. Thanks, Mate. Good ride home.

 

My polar told the following tale:

Ride time: 7h17

Ave heart rate: 154 (84%)

6979 KCal

Ave speed: 27.1 km/h

Lo: 3 deg; Hi 21 deg ( in the sun?)

 

Thanks again to Eddie for such a fine event.

 

See youse all next month.

Thank you. The solo stretch Dasville - Heidelberg was tough, so was VERY good to have such fine company the last 50 km into that crosswind.

 

My avg HR at 149. Never hit the 21° though!!

 

See u next month.

 

Also, this MTB party trick is wearing thin - I am totally buggered this morning. Next time on the road bike!

Thought the MTB was a ride tactic. Anyone drafting behind you feels too guilty and immediately goes to the front ;-)
