It does not matter how many hours I have put in on the hamster wheel that is the turbo over the last couple of months, I get nervous making such a big step up in distance as I am doing this weekend.
Up till now the furthest I have ventured is 43 miles....slowly.....and Sunday I do my first 50+ mile ride. It's 60 miles around Cheshire. A reasonably flat route compared to day one of the C2C in May but this will be the first time I hit my target distance of 60 miles in a day. Now all I need to do is add hills......oh and do it three times in a row! Three months of training to add those other bits.
Just had a very nervous look at the weather forecast for the weekend, we have had 2 deg and sleet and snow for the last week.........8 eg, partly sunny and only 8mph winds.....Oh I do hope that is accurate!
Back on the hamster wheel tonight........
