Beschreibung:

The most I have suffered on a bicycle ever! Sure, Ive worked harder for shorter periods, and Ive been up much bigger mountains, but the combination of distance (162 km), multiple steep climbs (3000 m total), rough roads and -most significantly- being unfit, made this a very tough ride.

I nearly didn’t make it. A 0500 start with little sleep and a forecast of rain had me fighting the 3 alarm clocks Id set!

About 450 cyclist started off from Abergavenny on a cold morning under threatening clouds. The climbing began immediately with the picturesque climb up the south side of the Gospel pass, the reverse of what I had done earlier this year while touring (http://www.gps-sport.net/trainings/Hay-to-Usk_264806 ). An early warning of the slippery wet roads was clear for every one to see when we we passed some poor guy who had come down hard on the steep descent down to Hay on Wye. Like an idiot I then found myself in a fast 3-5 man paceline in to a increasing wind along the only flatish part of the course SW to Brecon. I should have been pacing myself and sitting in! All was well until the second food stop at 100 km, by which time I found myself mostly leading a 3 man group on very heavy slow roads that felt like glue on the bike. By the time Id filled up with food for 5 mins, my legs had turned to lead. At 120 km I was starting to suffer, and at 130 km when we hit the last of the big climbs up from Llangynidr, I was toast. A bit like my own, my GPSs batteries gave up half way up the hill! I haven’t suffered as much up a climb for years. Our 3 man group had splintered and I found myself alone on the side of a grey welsh mountain. Not my idea of fun! Thankfully I picked up a few riders over the top, found my legs a little bit and limped home. I could barely get my sciatic-riddled leg over the frame at the end!

All unsurprsing really, given my lack of training and fitness, and the fact that I very rarely go over 100 km.
Very surprised then to discover Id come in 12th out of 70 finishers (6th in my age category) in the 101 mile course with a total time of 6:49. But that’s because the real tough nuts did the 120 mile course!
