Was good to see how some of the routes were faster but I think I made a bad decision to make us both do a long leg as straight as possible. 2km in heather into a strong wind was close to hell.

Nice to get out on a map in terrain and it took a while for them to feel like running. Made too many errors to mention but having a plan before each leg would have been a good idea.

Bike hills 1:03:31 [3] 15.11 mi (4:12 / mi) +638m 3:43 / mi
shoes: Canyon Endurace CF SL
As we were driving near this hill I just had to get out and have a pop. The first half of the climb is very easy but then it ramps up as you see the top. Very beautiful scenery and it was a gorgeous day so it made for quite a few people on the hill. Legs were good but lungs were working a lot harder.
I still think Hardknott is tougher but still very enjoyable.

Bike long 6:24:42 [3] 106.17 mi (3:37 / mi) +1537m 3:28 / mi
shoes: Canyon Endurace CF SL
Overcast and a little cold so it was more about getting the job done. Very desolate for the first 50 miles and midge city in the middle of it.
I enjoyed the up and down of the coastal roads and we were both happy to finish.
I am very surprised by how good I felt for the whole 972 miles as my legs never gave up at any point. I think I may have got stronger as it went along and can’t wait to put this fitness to good use in a few TT’s after some specific training.

45/100 The Lecht 10/10 245 climb over 3km.
I had a decent climb before The Lecht to warm me up and the weather was perfect to ride in all day. Best day of the trip with stunning views to match.

44/100 The Cairnwell (Glenshee) 6/10 323 climb over 8.5km.
The weather cleared for the run up to Glenshee which was amazing and a lovely climb.

Another day in the bag and only 4 to go. 2 ice cream and coke stops:-)

Bike long 6:15:07 [3] 108.51 mi (3:27 / mi) +1305m 3:20 / mi
shoes: Canyon Endurace CF SL
Puncture early on led to only 40 psi for the next 30 miles. Managed to see a guy in a lay-by getting ready for a TT so got the air I needed.
A bit tired to start with but after an ice cream and coke the last 50 miles flew by and I felt great although it was very flat.

A good start with a lovely tailwind but then it got hilly and very wet.
I don’t mind the hills but the rain just pushes the sweat into my eyes.
At least the weather looks better tomorrow.

Timed my effort well with a slight increase in pace for the 2nd half and finished empty. I thought the time was a little slow but the good part was not feeling the fatigue from yesterdays ride so this bodes well.
