Ride 26/05/2024

Well given the weather this morning I was not surprised to find myself alone on the bun run this morning, it was very wet 💦. Given the conditions and the fact I still had a fair bit of fatigue in my legs from yesterdays 107 miles, I decided to do a shortened route for today’s ride. I would go up to Redcraigs via Wellwood rather than the usual route past the dump. I would follow the normal route over Knockhill but rather going all the way down to Powmill I would cut off at Hillend and skip out Dollar and make a bee line for Dollarbeg. From here it was back on route to the cafe stop for food, only this time I had scrambled egg roll along with my coffee and cake 😀 Thankfully by the time I had finished this the rain had stopped, so although I was riding against a headwind for the route back home at least I would remain dryish, in fact by the time I got back home the sun was starting to shine 🙄 Anyway I took a shorter route home rather than going via Fishcross, Alloa and Clackmannan and the usual coastal route home. I went straight back up Saline to Redcraigs again before going back down to Dunfermline. So today I clocked up 40 miles at a sedate pace of 14 mph, which was about as much as I was in the mood for 🙁
