Ride 27/09/2025

Over 40 of us on the bun run today and weather wise it’s overcast but dry with little wind, so a decent day for cycling. I went with the first group today and given this was the slower ride at 09:00 I still had to ride at the 08:30 pace 😬 Not that I mind too much, it just wasn’t expected. Anyhow I did the normal route today with the cafe stop at the usual Stirling Mills cafes for roll and orange juice. Things went a little wry on the way back as I thought we were going to be riding to Milnathort, so Paul and I waited for the rest to catch up with us on the split for Knockhill, only to find out that everyone went over Knockhill 🙄 so you can imagine the chase we had to give to catch everyone up when we realised that everyone went over Knockhill instead 😳🥵 This lead to a very fast finish to the ride for us with some cups gained on the way 👍🏆 but I did burn poor old Paul a bit in the process 😁 This also meant that I was short on my distance by the time I got home so I had to tag on an extra 4 miles to make it to the 50 mile mark with and avg speed of over 18 mph 🚴 😅
