Wayne pudding Mol Posted December 30, 2021 Share I’m not on Strava so it doesn’t count - I have a reasonably mellow day tomorrow and I’ll make it despite my brother in laws best efforts biggest lesson leant is that I am able to ride more than I do and these circumstances weren’t ideal I fell short of my mileage target for the year and this has taught me I have no excuse for this NotSoBigBen, Jewbacca, Scary Rider and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 30, 2021 Share Second last day of AweGUST 2022. Conditions weren’t easy out there; ended up up changing the route to suit the conditions #crosswinds FTW. Tailwinds > crosswinds > headwinds. Edited December 30, 2021 by Frosty _David_, Scary Rider, HdB and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mecheng89 Posted December 30, 2021 Share 42k to go. I must say, my legs are lacking top end ie. sprinting power, but the steady state is fine. My fatigue, however, is on another level. Been a unique challenge this year, nowhere near as fun as prior years, but excellent base training. _David_, ChrisF, HdB and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbr Posted December 30, 2021 Share almost there, I must say I expected it to be much easier, but tough to be out on the bike for long hours every day when on holidays with the family 😅 And I did a 155km ride the day before the event started 😂 53 km to go, it should be doable ! mecheng89, HdB, 'Dale and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
