First 20 miler for me, quite chuffed! but aching hands

Malmsbury is silly hilly

Ah but hills are the grit in the oyster.

Before you know it you will be taking it in your stride.

Nice one! Its always good to get a mileage target under the belt

To add to what the others have said about the hands, I had it at first two!
For me it was fixed with time and a decent pair of gloves.

Also make sure that your gears and brake levers are adjusted properly, so that you can reach them without cocking your wrists. Generally that'll mean a 45 degree angle downwards from the bars. This'll make sure you get less pain and better control.

Ooh the gear leavers do feel a little out may have a fiddle later!
