56 Miler Part 2

Paul was up for a ride this morning, so I thought I'd repeat the route I did yesterday.

Dont tell Paul that I told you this, but he's fitter than I am. Hence I was secretly quite pleased to have him drafting behind me for once. It made a nice change!!

I thought we would go quicker as a pair (in fact, I was hoping we could do it in less than 3 hours), but for some reason it took a few minutes longer. Makes me realise how hard I was pushing to get back in time for Jules yesterday!!

It was only around half way around that I remembered the Garmin has a 'shadow rider' feaure where you can effectively race yourself if you are doing the same route. Maybe I'll have to try again tomorrow!

Anyhow, pleased with progress; two 56 mile rides averaging over 17 mph.
