Cycled from durness to thurso this morning and feeling it in the legs now!!! Went out and camped last night with my friends and put my bike in my friend chris' transit van. Went fishing last night and had a few beers with them then was up this morning at 8 to set off, friends are all used to this behaviour these days! Had a good cycle but the road around Loch Eriboll and the Kyle of Tongue is very steep in places so it was a good test of the legs. Did the 70 miles in just over 4 hours which is about 17mph av- pleased with the average as its a tough cycle.
Was back in time for swim coaching at 2 and then decided to go swim training myself with masters at half 3- not a good idea as halfway through my hamstrings tried to give up:) just about managed to get finished though.
Off mountain biking tomorrow morn (if the legs are recovered!), more on that tomorrow.
