After CTCT I struggled with motivation to get out there .... nursing some roasties and a still tender leg did not help. The "lus" to ride seems to be coming back .... as winter rain is moving in. Think my indoor trainer has done more miles in the last 6 weeks than it has done since lockdown ended. Actually trying out a combination of core exercises followed by a 30+ minute ride on the IDT .... Trust you will get your "lus" back soon enough👍 On sunday I'm doing my first ever 200k ride, I'm thinking of perhaps taking the week after as a rest week, zero exercise at all. ChrisF 1

Chris Hope you had a blast, I did the long route on my « modern gravel bike » and I must say… I was happy not to be on a steel vintage bike 🤣 I expected to hate myself for entering a 170km gravel race after 2 hours but must say I enjoyed every second of it, yes, even the hour+ section of headwind after Ouberg 😅 1st photo at the first stop after 1hr full gas in pitch dark, with a crapy light, up Ouberg. The rest was after the last stop, down ouberg into the clouds, rain and mud, but the perspective of cruising downhill to the finish made it almost enjoyable 🥰🥰 Edited April 26, 2023 by Jbr devvydoesdonuts, Pikey, throttles and 13 others 16
