Well the cold weather has hit us now, I was wrapped up today given it was on 6 degrees out there today, it was still bright, but just cold. I thought I would be out on my own today as I stood at the meeting point on my own until the last 5 mins when 12 other people turned up Anyway given that I’m going the 100 miles Club Randonee tomorrow I decided to not do any extra today. So we split into 2 groups and set off at a brisk pace. I was leading the first group so I was going at my pace which goes to explain why todays ride was one of the fastest but given that when we got to the cafe stop we were joined by one of the fastest guys in the club things really heated up after the cafe stop. John (the fast guy) lead the group back home at a faster pace than I was going in the beginning so by the time I got back home today the avg speed was above 17 mph Anyway given I wasn’t doing any extra today the 45 miles clocked up at that pace was fine with me, roll on tomorrow.
