A Recovery Ride

Yesterday I wanted to see how my body was after the peaks epic. When I finished it wasn't just my legs that were sore but also my wrists and triceps. So I headed out to meet Ali for lunch in the park opposite her work. It was a lovely sunny day and great to see her. Then I rode off to Rivington via Barrow Bridge, a little loop then home. I felt fine and was really glad to be out. Only did 23 miles but felt I could have carried on for hours.

  3. I was having trouble riding on Friday. My legs and bum were strongly objecting to being back on the bike.

    I can't believe you think 23miles single speed off-road is a recovery ride!

  4. 2 miles to the park and then the easy trails at rivi near the castle and then not much height gained going back, it was easy especially as I didn't push. Remember Jon I had rested in preparation for thurs, you rode everyday for a week before it!
