As for today the weather was much better, dry with a few sunny spells but still a bit of wind around to make life interesting with the leg out to the cafe with a head wind I had to deal with. With 14 of us on the bun run it was quite a big group but meant that I didn&#8217;t have to sit on the front for too long, and after yesterday&#8217;s session on the smart trainer, which was a hard one for me, I was looking for a steady ride today. Nice easy pace to the cafe stop for coffee and cake before we headed home with a tail wind, so things did pick a bit towards the end. I followed Ken and Chris along the coastal route through Rosyth and along to Dalgety Bay but we didn&#8217;t go into Dalgety Bay as we headed north up the hill to Crossgates. By this point I had clocked up 50 miles but I was looking to do 3,500 of elevation today and I was a 1000 feet short, I was also running very low on the Di2 battery, so rather than taking my changes at doing extra to make up the elevation I first stopped at home to give the Di2 a little bit of a charge before I continued on. Once I had some more juice on the Di2 battery I continued on my ride to do some reps up Goat Quarry, 5 was enough to get my elevation target and a little bit extra. So 63 miles clocked up at an avg speed of 16 mph and I got my target of 20,000 feet of climbing in the week, not something I&#8217;m making a habit of as it&#8217;s bloody hard to do \ud83d\ude01 <\/p> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" <p> Ride 15\/06\/2025 Due to the horrendous weather yesterday there was no bun run for me so a session on the smart trainer was the alternative.
