When you plan a ride and it starts pissing, but you want to stick it out and your mates don't bail on you... that's bromance...

quick local pedal near Hobby Park before, during and after sunrise this morning

"Keep the rubber on the gravel "

Better not tell anythingbut....

 

Mine took me to Glencairn and back for her maiden ride. 2h15 or so, 51km & ±1,600 kcal (minus the pain au chocolat at the halfway point)

 

Rides like a dream. Honestly felt good to be on the road again. Just need to get used to clipping in after a stop.

Have to admit, the last few weeks I've had to force myself to go ride. Once i'm on my bike I'm happy again, but the schlep of getting there has been a tad 'meh!' of late.

So yesterday the OH said let's go do those fun rides we used to - we headed off to Rosemary hill - it's been a long time (nearly 2yrs) since I was last there.

 

Apart from normal trail maintenance - they've added so many new offshoot routes and new obstacles  - and riding behind my OH - off he goes onto the bull run bits - leaving me no option but to follow -so in a way a good push me out of my comfort zone ride  - but also a lot of C'mon Uni FFS - it's not that hard  :blush:

 

If I lived closer, Rosemary Hill would most definitely be my go to place.

at one point I thought I was going to die

even after stopping for 10 minutes to 'recover' it didn't go down - so I think it was just funky. When we got going again, after about another 10 mins it dropped back down.
