20th Nov - Bike

Ride with Addiscombe,

Went ahead of training group with Ed but got caught in Merstham. Kept with them up Reigate Steps and on to Rusper Hill. Fell off the back there as knee was playing up. Really pleased with how strong i felt, felt completely at ease, sessions were hard on the front but my longest training ride yet. averaged about 25mph for that bit.

On way back knee was playing up again. Did whole effort on the front from Cafe to Reigate (10 milesish) with a group of about 30 people following me. averaged 21mph and felt really really strong. let them go after that as another big hill which my knee is hating.

Knee ached for a day after but not as bad as before.

Total Distance 45 miles
