Back with the Early Birds today. A nice 20 miler with a steep climb towards the end up Addingham Moorside. Saw a field full of Spring lambs on the way out (and an unfortunately dead deer on the side of the road on the way back).
I felt quite strong for a change, although Mark dropped off the pace early as he wasn't feeling well, Cacophony's chain fell off and El Cid was at best heavily hung-over and at worst still drunk! It was nice to be on a lighter bike, but my new one is still wrapped up (despite having it since December - a tale for another Post!)
Tomorrow I have a day off work and am planning a longish ride (~70 miles) with a few nice climbs - it is effectively the Route 2 ride of the White Rose Classic, minus a bit at the start.
