Cheviot Summit
started off very steadily as not really sure how my knee would behave.
Once I'd settled in I gradully increased the effort level on the climb and began to move through the field. By the top I was in 8th - happy with that.
After the turn I was quite prepared to hurtle backwards since I was not going to take any risks with hammering my knee on the descent.
As it was I was able to keep a decent pace. The descent and ground were perfect for me - nothing too steep and almost all on nice soft peat. only 6 people passed me. 14th in about 1:04 - up in 39, down in 25.

Then we had a picnic in the sun, by the river.
