107 mile bike ride today and I certainly know about it! I've done a few long rides in the past but these have always included some quick nosh(can you still say this?)at a cafe stop! So I suppose they were like 2 x 50 milers in the same day. The fact I did it on my own also added to the misery as long rides seem to go a lot quicker when you can have a natter to your mates. I must say I did 'bonk'(another word that can cause a titter[and another])at about the 90 mile mark which coincided with me running out of water. I promised myself I would do a short run as soon as I got in. My knees absolutely wrecked so my short run wasn't even half a mile. I couldn't have the neighbours hearing me screaming like a girl so I yet again talked myself out of it!
I tried to order a bike box to rent for my bike during the trip. They're all booked out, probably going where I'm going. I'd better get ringing around sharpish or I'll be going nowhere!
