I think about 700? It's the first time it's had a good weather forecast in a few years so probably attracted a few more people!

The weather was so nice meant that it was a ss top and shorts ride and I think you are right with 700 being the previous best.

Rain in ernst started for me about 11 miles from the end and at that point I was not stopping to put a jacket on.

Feeling really chuffed with my ride today.

Did 50 miles with djtheglove (who's always good company) from Chelmsford to West Mersea; slightly weird cycling away from Colchester to go home, but my car was at Chelmsford!

Anyway, overall average speed was 13.8 which is vastly more than normal for me. The outward journey averaged 14.3mph (tailwind). Total ride was 3 hours 38 mins which is fab for me for 50 miles.

I think the reason I went faster was that I was following dj and didn't want to slow him down too much so I actually expended some effort in cycling, rather than just trundling along. Clearly I can go faster than I normally do. I was a bit worried I'd be knackered but the lunch of Sausage & Onion Baguette with Chips & Salad, followed by Coffee & Walnut Cake, appears to have revived me.

Oh, and I wonder if the large trailer I was towing might have had anything to do with my speed down hills!

Is cyclogs working, no one seems to have added any rides today, or has the bad weather stopped people from riding.

Oh that reminds me, the rss feed is a bit hit and miss also

 

[Auntie Helen]

Yes, it won't let me add my ride today... obviously having a bad moment.

And today's average speed was 14.45 for 20ish miles, including that horrible hill out of Manningtree. After yesterday's ride with djtheglove I decided to see if I can increase my average by working a bit harder. Yes I can, but now I need a shower...

Ah well, it's nearly time for bed for me but now that I know others are having trouble logging rides I can go to sleep and save the logging for tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Keith Oates]

AH, I don't know if you've noticed but somebody has nicked your boat off the trailer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[alecstilleyedye]

damned log is down

 

[arallsopp]

Yup. Can't log my rides at the mo, and get a "Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred.
This error has been logged and a notification sent to Cyclogs Technical Support" message instead.

Oh well, I'm at whatever mileage it says, plus a ride home Tues, in and out on Weds, and in this morning. So, erm, x+66.8 miles. I hope its fixed in time for the end of the month.

 

[Keith Oates]

I was just going to put in my 600Km one day ride, perhaps I'll forget that by the time the site is up again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Auntie Helen]

Yes, definitely forget that one Keith
