Saturday

So I missed the bunch due to faffing around with seatclamps and loose bottle cages. Rode part of the loop they do which was actually quite nice – around Burnham Beeches – very posh houses in amongst nice woods. The sun was out, contrary to weather forecasts which helped things. I was short on distance after doing some random “try not to get too lost” looping around so I went to Richmond Park for a single lap. I haven’t been there for ages. “You made that hill look effortless. Were you even breathing?” was one bloke’s comment after riding up the steeper hill going CW. Ha! Maybe actually riding my bike is helping my fitness.. who would’ve thunk it?! I’m not looking forward to the very early start 25mi TT tomorrow.
