Ride 10/03/2012 to Shotts

Ride 10/03/2012 by scotlund@blueyonder.co.uk at Garmin Connect – Details. Another dull windy day in the saddle this time to Shotts, riding up and down a lots of hills. Some nice speed going down but going up  is a pain and doing it very slowly (5-6 mph) doesn’t do much for the distance. And for some reason my Garmin decided to lose the plot and go crazy on the laps, God knows why…

Anyhow 52 miles clocked up today but it took me 5 hours to do it lets hope the Clock2Rock is flat or I’m in the saddle for up to 12 hours a day, and you can bet my arse will divorce me for that!

Ride 03/03/2012 the reverse of Tak Ma Doon Road

Ride 03/03/2012 by scotlund@blueyonder.co.uk at Garmin Connect – Details. So I decided to ride the reverse of what I did last week but going a slightly different route over cross country. It turned into a bit of a quagmire and me having to lift my bike over a lot of farmers gates. And all of that before I hit the steep side of Tak-Ma-Doon road. Took me 35 min to ride the 2 miles uphill in first gear, dam hard ride and very windy by the time I got to the top. But the fun stuff was now left, riding 10 miles down hill and reaching speeds of 35 mph
