A dull wet day so did a sprint around the forth river. Had no wet gear with me so I had my foot down all the way round as I was getting wet, hence this is the fasted forth loop I’ve ever done

Ride 16/06/2016 Prestonpans
Well it started out as a dull day but again after lunch it got sunny. Decided to ride to Prestonpans, I’ve never been there before and it’s a coastal ride which is quite scenic. It’s a flat ride with a little wind on the coast but all and all a pleasant days ride.

Bit of a dull wet day, although it did start to dry out towards lunch time. Went for a quick ride around the area to work up an appetite for lunch.

Ride 05/06/2016 Evans Cycles Rite It Lanark
Well it’s the perfect day to go cycling, hot sunny day all day long, and as luck would have it I was doing the Evans Cycles Ride It event in Lanark today. Given the weather today I opted to do the long route of 80 miles rather than the medium route I had entered for. It was well worth the effort, a good ride with not too many hills but a bitch of a 14% hill 3 miles from the finish. I didn’t stop too much as I was against the clock, had to be back to the finish before 17:00. I actually shot our of the starting blocks but slowed slow in the hills and the last 20 miles I was a little on the slow side, but I clocked up the 80 miles in just over 5 hours so I’m pleased with that. No doubt next week it will piss down.
