Ride 14/06/2014 Falkirk to Perth

Ride 14/06/2014 Falkirk to Perth by PaulLund at Garmin Connect – Details.

Well rain was off and on most of the day, luckily it wasn’t heavy so I didn’t get too wet, and on a tough ride like this being wet I can do without. Falkirk to Perth today over the Ochil Hills, TWICE, and back home, very sore knees, legs and hips but thats my own fault for riding in an incorrect position, seat was too low, I’ve learned my lesson, seat higher now.

Ride 31/05/2014 Ochils half loop

For once it’s a nice sunny day so I decided to do my Ochils half loop and clocked up 70 miles. Knackered now, glad I decided not to do the full loop which is 85 miles would have caused a lot of pain doing that.

Decided to ride to Glasgow and see what I could see of the Radio 1 big weekend. Suffice to say I didn’t see much, it was well cordoned off, but I could still hear it

Ride 03/05/2014 Round the Forth

Ride 03/05/2014 Round the Forth by PaulLund at Garmin Connect – Details.

Well after not riding for a month, thanks to me breaking my front suspension, I’m back on the road and so out of shape This ride should be a doddle to do and in under 3 hours, usually around the 2:30 – 2:40 range and my legs hurt. I hate having to train back up again this is where having 2 bikes would be a real benefit, wish I could afford it.

Ride It Callander MTB 2014

Well this was going well until I went over the fucking handlebars coming down a hill! Luckily I fell into a muddy stream which cushioned the fall, but I still came away with a few cuts and bruises but worst of all I was wet now Can’t stand being wet it makes me very cold and on a cold day like this, this is a big issue for me, and I was only half way. I soldiered on but never got warm again, although I did eventually dry, until it rained All in all it was a good ride, well at least it didn’t kill me this time round, last time I did this it killed me twice over, but that was a far tougher route than this years. Anyhow made it back to the start knackered but not feeling terrible.
