Short term goal/whim/brainstorm Yorkshire Wolds challenge in a day.
Mon. Board good session managed a project I've been trying for a couple of months.
Tue. Bike short session including 20secs on 40 secs off x5 2 sets and drafted a tractor for 5 miles at 27 mph
We'd. Board easy mirror session.
Thu. Decided to do the Wolds cycle challenge 146 miles in a day. Started in Market Weighton rather than Beverley due to better parking and as its a circuit, it doesn't make any difference to the distance.
Got a bit lost round Southburn and Hutton Cranswick and up on main road in to Driffield, also got lost going into Humanby otherwise managed to find my way reasonably ok.
I had to give myself a talking to several times when there was a shorter route back.
Memorable moments include going up Leavening brow 1 in 5 after 120 miles, I had to get off dut to cramp in my thighs also climbing out of Thixendale. Didn't walk any of it though.
Towards the end it felt like the muscles of the front of my thighs were rotating round to the back every time I got out of the saddle.
In the end I had 148.20 miles on my computer 9 hrs 29.08 riding time 10 hrs 20 mins total 15.65 mph and 7324 calories used.
Slept badly due to cramping toes and fingers.
Fri. Nothing.
Sat. Nothing.
Sun. Board first thing just repeating stuff, climbed ok. Afternoon bike 1hr 30 mins steady.
