Morning Dunblane-Livingston ride
Lovely morning, so I cycled to work. Sadly, despite the weather, it was a pretty sh*tty cycle. The traffic through Larbert, Camelon & Falkirk is always pretty bad, but it was particularly rubbish today. The road surface was also cr*p in lots of places and I had to get through 8 - 8! - roadwork temporary lights. By contrast, Avon Gorge was almost pleasant and not its usual, terrifying, self.
Set a very easy pace and span up the hills, so, legs were fine, although my back was protesting by the end.
TRIMP 140.6
Note: rather glad I cycled because just after I had enjoyed my lunch, Matthew turned up with a huge chocolate birthday cake that he'd made for Andrew's birthday! Calorie deficit duly wiped out.

Over the hill to Linlithgow after work, to catch the train home. Steady enough, quite warm! TRIMP 65.
