Yonks ago, but the co.uk site ran alongside (and redirected) if I remember correctly.

Thanks AH, I must have missed that and only noticed a couple of days ago when I couldn't log on. I must pay more attention!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ease up you lot I normally get to enjoy at least couple of days at the beginning of the month somewhere near the top

I'm on hols so have lots of opportunity for cycling and cake eating

Back home tomorrow though so back to the normal daily 32 mile grind!

Cor in't it hot though!

 

[Auntie Helen]

It's fine on a bike; when you go as fast as I do, you create your own breeze

Would hate to still be working in London though

Managed my first century ride since 2007 today, thoroughly enjoyed it (apart from the driving rain and headwind at the end).

Congrats to sittingduck on completing the DunRun!

Managed my first century ride since 2007 today,

Congratulations! Good work!

Well done SD. The second ton is easier (I did one yesterday evening). Century in driving rain, Baggy .

 

[Sittingduck]

Thanks Marinyork & Baggy

Well done on the ton Baggy! Yours sounds more gruelling than mine - as the Dun Run was "mostly" dry. Just the last 15 miles or so from what I can remember that were wet ones. Experienced all extremes of weather except snow... bloody British Summer

How are the feet SD, better today ?

 

[Sittingduck]

Feeling fine 4F. Was actually considering going out for a little spin
Need to try the new road shoes with SPD's and see if I get "hot spots" in them too

Quite surprised how the 6 mile ride back from where the coaches dropped us off last night didn't hurt that much. Maybe it's delayed pain and I'll wake up tomorrow with somebody else's legs attached

Do you feel okay today?

 

[4F]

Yeah no problems and feeling pretty good after finally getting some kip. 2 things I discovered during this ride

Assos chamois creme. The potion of gods, I am now converted.
Zipvit caffeine gel - boy does this keep you awake

 

[Sittingduck]

I may invest on some of that Assos - heard it's good. Also think it's about time I got a proper cycling jersey - cotton t shirts / polo shirts no good for a ride of such distance with a backpack

 

[Baggy]

Thanks everyone! We were lucky with the weather as it only started raining and gusting for the last 20 miles or so.

We rode the Devon Delight Audax, but decided to ride to the start and home again. It's a lovely route though it does have a few challenging lumps in it.

Apparently there were 1000+ Dunrunners this year

Apparently there were 1000+ Dunrunners this year

Amazed at the number of nutters out there - 1000+ - wow

Do you know what their previous best figure would have been?
