The month to date has included the following rides:
02/04 - Shere - Duration 3:14 - Distance 86.9
With Dave from Hampton through Thames Ditton, Esher, Bookham up Denbies, down Wyte Down to Shere and then as we were early for a coffee we pushed on up to Ewhurst and then turned at the top and back to Shere for coffee. Felt pretty hard and I was sick on the way down from Ewhurst. Struggeled somewhat up Coombe bottom as we'd gone some up to Ewhusrt but picked it up past Cobham and did my usual TT past the police college then home to dave's for a cuppa.
06/04 - Hillingdon - Duration 0.35 - Distance 12.8 warm-up - Duration 1:04 - Distance 29.8
First session at Hillingdon
13/04 - Hillingdon - Duration 49.57 - Distance 23.2
Started a through an off session with the beginner/intermediate group but some guy from Willesden kept cutting in and messing it up. Got a bit sick of it after a few laps so dropped back and went round with another guy. Not really hard enough though so need to stick at it next week
19/04 - East Clandon - Duration 1:02 - Distance 26.0
Used a bigger than nnormal gear (three from bottom) to tackle the hills, real headwind the whole way and bottled doing Steeple because of time and the fact I was knackered. Average speed is picking up though
20/04 - Hillingdon - Duration 12.13 - Distance 2.0 warm-up - Duration 55.56 - Distance 26.9
Did through and off with the Novice.Intermediate group. A lot bett than last week, got a good pace going and although I did most of the work off the front I got the benefit. Pulled at 60 minutes as I stared getting cramp in my left calf
23/04 - Winchester- Duration 8:25 - Distance 157.2
Hazlemere to Winchester: At times we were doing 31kmph, but with keep having to stop to check directions we lost quite a bit of time. Weather was lousy, Dave kept saying it's localized showers, big locality!
Winchester to Farnham: Had to stop in Farnham for a cup of coffee. Not that cold but wet through and absolutly knackered. By 120kms I was really starting to lose the plot on the ongoing hills and our time statred dropping through the floor
Farnham to Hazlemere: Refreshed after the cuppa but dreading the climb out of Farnham to Hazlemere we set off in now heavy rain back to the start. Got to the turn off for Frensham and decided to stick on the main road so we didn't get the awful climb out, as it happened we still ended going through Frensham a different way and then had a 6 mile climb to Hindhead, I felt like crying. Run down from there to Hazlemere in torrential rain with no brakes...
26/04 - Performance Test 1 - Duration 10.38 - Distance 4.8good and I think the ride over the weekend and the following rest will show well in this test
26/04 - Performance Test 2 - Duration 11.1 - Distance 4.8d again stayed in a big gear and was getting over the hills with what felt like a good speed and a good cadence
26/04 - Additional - Duration 19.0 - Distance 10.1
27/04 - Hillingdon - Duration 18.11 - Distance 8.6 warm-up - Duration 55.43 - Distance 30.9
Through and off with a group of about 10 (people joining and leaving as the pace intensified). I kept a strong pace going and was there for the duration. Pulled on the hour but got dragged back in by the coach as there was a sprint to the line - just no one told me where the line was. Got told to keep in a lower gear for a higher cadence and that I "have good legs"!
