Great Bike

So according to the book I should cut my effort by about 25% for this bike ride. I spoke to a friend too who said he did a 100 2 weeks before the event and it didn't do him any favours. So 75 it is. I did another in and out ride down through Chatfield Reservoir and back. I would have liked to go further but I didn't want to risk it. I ate less this morning and only took 1 bar and 3 Cliff bloks. It went well and I felt great! I even got a respectable speed going. The chatfield reservoir "hill" was a breeze too.

After the last month I have been getting worried but this went well. I used the top cog quite a bit. I have found it a bit tiring at times but it went well and using it keeps your average speed higher. Although high reps are better sometimes its nice not to worry about that.

As this is my last big bike ride I think this helped my mentality and helped me go further.
