Rough Ride ...... what a bastard!

Bloody hell, the Rough Ride was a complete bastard this year. I missed last years due to an injury and wasn't really aware of how much the route had been tweeked :yikes: F%*k-me, it was just hard work. There were a few good little downhill sections (love the downhill) but 90% of the route was almost impossibly uphill :insane: With a few stops, it took 8hrs to get around ..... Aaaaagh!

Am I going to do it again next year ..... I think I might :furious:

Rough Ride

Going to be heading off to Wales in a bit. A spot of over-night camping, followed by an early morning and about 78km or track and hills before I turn around again and return home :rolleyes:

The sun has come out. Glad it has, as it will help dry the route out but with a blazing sun screaming down on your back, it's going to make the day bloody warm going :insane: Think it'll be another 10l of water day!

A bit more faffing and then I'd better get going. I'll try and take a few pics but find the energy to stop and get the camera out isn't always that easy :ko:
