50 mile test spin

50 mile test spin

50 miles is half of the 100(ish) I’m doing on the 12th September (sponsorship page to follow!)

Me and the new bike went for a proper spin this morning all the way out to Carnwath and back. Just a shade under 50 miles (maybe I should have gone round the block a couple of times to make it a round 50?)

All feels good – cage pedals that came with in are sh**e. Just as well I’ve got some proper SPD clips coming tomorrow! Not too many aches and pains, heavier on the wrists with the riding position than my previous MTB with road tyres.

Average was a lot better – basically took 10 minutes longer that the 41 miles the previous week.

Looking forward to piling on a few miles over the next week.
