Last training ride

Thursday, me and Shent went out for our last training ride before the Peak District 50 mile Challange which takes place next Sunday.

The weather was poor with 20mph winds and pouring rain but we still managed to do 2 laps of our training route where we completed 43 miles of hill riding in 3hrs 40mins. Thats a good time for us considering the conditions and after a days work too. 

But our hills are not as steep as the hills we will be riding next week so it wont be a walk in the park, believe me. I nearly died last year.

Last year took me 6 and 3/4 hours to complete the course, this year I want to do it in under 5 and 1/2.

Now that WONT BE BAD FOR A FAT LAD.

Stay tuned for the update here next week!!!!

Oh if you can donate a quid to the charity it will make it all worth while, the link can be found on the right hand side near the top of the blog.        Thanks.
