Rode to work.
Dunblane-Kinbuck-Braco-Auchterarder-Kinkell Bridge-Findo Gask-Balgowan-Methven-Pitcairngreen-Battleby.

Damp, drying nicely, sun slowly peeping out, wind assisted, quiet roads, time to think.

Body holding out until about 100mins when knees start grumbling and toes getting pins & needles. I clearly need to bike a bit more regularly to work these niggles out. Over 16mph average - nae bad! Climb to add later.

Hanging & collecting tapes for Hollie's sprint training session at North Muirton. 2.55k in 14:20. Running splits just a tad faster than Tessa's from the 2014 Scottish Sprints - confirms Hollie is in good shape and can focus on finding the best routes.

Road bike out from work. Battleby - Pitcairngreen - Methven - Harrietfield - Battleby - a nice loop on traffic-free roads and smooth ones at that. Nice undulations, great scenery - I could get to like this malarky!
Butt will be a bit tender tomorrow....

Hanging, collecting and monitoring controls for the Hungarian Sprint Selections races planned by GG at Livingston.
Faffy bloody gripples! Glad to help though and plenty of nosh after with GG & F.

Checking out Ladywell Plantation & north Birnam on the old map. Foolish to have gone out in trainers and shorts....
Nice day for it, mind!
