given that I'll need 2 rest days in the remainder of the month to beat my monthly target I need to ride 58... not gonna happen because every time I've tried to ride 60 miles/day for 6 days I've ended up ill... :smile: maybe I should turn the intensity down eh :smile:

No I need to relax a little, have you see my average speed? 19.4mph since the beginning of the year! You remember what it was like in Jan don't you, because it includes that lot of riding. In theory if I don't push as hard I'll be able to ride further :smile:

Hi all,

My Thorn Sherpa arrived yesterday, picture taken during my first test ride today.

Initial impression is that it is solidly made and will be ideal for my South Asia tour leaving at the end of June. I tried a couple of the local 10% climbs on the 26 ring spinning in the saddle, made quite a difference to honking up them on the my fixed wheel Touche. The difference in weight was very noticeable felt like I was working much harder than usual with reducing my average speed on its first ride by 3-4 mph. I intend to do a couple of longer rides on it at weekends with a couple of long weekends cycle camping before the off.

Oh scruts. Well, on the plus side I've just got permission for the perfect 'short distance' bike accessory. Comes with a 5 point safety harness, and big grin.

Can ted log his miles independently, or do I add them onto mine :thumbsup:

I've got a few miles to add to the log, but to be honest it's becoming a burden. It would be great if there was a way of automatically importing rides from Sporttracks or Garmin Edge.
