MazH - on a nicer day in a nicer place at a nicer time i'd have taken the time fix it, instead I walked towards home until I saw a taxi with hire light on. He agreed to ship me & bike home.

Tried a slightly different first mile again this morning, swapped one short sharp narrow bridge climb for a nicer bit warm up, and a longer gradual hill to the same point. A smidgen slower overall, but i think that was the whole journey to be honest as did Body Pump last night and felt a bit leggy. Bloody hell it was cold today tho. I wore light full finger gloves, rather than usual fingerless, but need something more as fingers were still frozen. A base layer and a short sleeved cycling top, warm on the first uphill 3, bit too cool on the 4 faster flatter miles thereafter..... I might have to carry an extra layer for the second half from now on. |

Maz, whereabouts in the country are you? Oddly it's warmer here (York) than it was yesterday - although not so bright. In fact, it's drizzling. |
