You'll be fine, my only advice would be to keep your body well fuelled during the ride!

Just a quick 10 tonight, to make sure my legs still work after two days rest. Pleased to say they still do. A couple of pb's and a good average. Felt a lot warmer out tonight to. Bring on the spring. https://www.strava.com/rides/42355985

Yes my 10 mile didn't get me feeling like an ice cube today, roll on spring.

Ditto! Good luck to you both, I'm sure we will all do well in our respective events if we keep getting the miles in!

 

[Nigelnaturist]

Well all I can say is, it will be a long time before I do 200km, good luck Joey.
Me today, well its official I am no faster without the panniers and rack and slightly higher gearing.
Though I am pleased with theses.

This is not the whole run but most of it.
http://app.strava.com/activities/42362422#711008678 2 wks ago I was 36:30 today 34:38 0.8mph faster. I think I would have had more bar traffic lights ect..

Good things to say, since I put the Sora mech back on gear changing is more decisive, mind that could be the new cable and a clean.

I just past 4,000 miles since June 23rd

Not sure I will, no matter what I do I just don't seem to get any quicker.
