Bike 4:00:00 [4]
shoes: Dawes 62 fixed CX
not doing the phoenix as am still recovering achilles - liz n maz doing the C course - I'm going out on my bike
From my stable of bikes I chose the most stupid option. The road from the barrowburn campsite down to the village has two 1in7's and then all the roads beyond are rather lumpy too. I havnt been far on fixed lately and certainy not anywhere so relentlessly up and down. Consequently my thighs are shredded and very painful 2 days later.
