Finally got back on the bike today work seems to always get in the way of training, oh the joys of having to earn a living as well as trying to train properly.

I headed out to do the Wakite hill, due to rain (feeling chilled) and starting to feel some knee pain I pulled the pin on doing the hill proper I pulled out after climbing the foothills. I think that I made the right decision at the time there will always be other times I suppose.

The best thing about todays ride was I used my Tri bars extensivly throughout the ride, they make a considerable difference to aero-dynamics (I know stating the obvious, some of us are slow learners), although I did use them in the Kinloch Tri I didn’t have the confidence to use them as much as I could have and definitly not at any speed. Todays ride saw me on the aero bars at a constant 57km/h, so progress was made!!!

31.31km, 1hr 07mins, Avg 28.0km/h, Max 62.5km/h
