I know what you mean, you can get a handle bar mount for cameras, wouldn't put a DSLR on it though.

You'll not need to do much Steve. Probably a couple of repeats today will be more than enough to get it done after yesterday's marathon. Good luck.

Not unless they have a veterans class!Well done @Mo1959 womens TDF next year then.....
Just did my first 25 miler! The weathers been nice and cooler which was good! My target when cycling was to get to the 250 km mark in the Dirt Search challenge which is only 74km away!.
In the last 13 days cycled just over 100 miles since beginning which I'm happy with

Very envious of everyones rides this week.
Just managed to get out with the boys on a tag ten miler. Hoping to get out for a ride on my own later.

After Tuesdays success, Thursday's ride went a bit pear shaped. My legs didn't feel in great condition and after about 10k I was wondering why I was doing it and just wanted to get home. Cue an unhappy last 20k 
Saturday would normally be my long ride but when setting my alarm for 6:30am, I was thinking I need a rest and in a way I should have decided to go or not then. Alarm went off, legs were still aching and so the next thing I know is it's 10:30am
Thought I couldn't waste a weekend so I just went out for a short ride in the evening with a Strava segment in mind and then to take it easy.

I ended up with 6th place on the segment. I have a couple of CR's from running, but this is my first top 10 in cycling
In my weight class I'm joint first!

Congrats @Mo1959 again, amazing stuff.
Good luck @ItsSteveLovell and anyone else trying to cap the last days meterage.
Funny that link about the womens TDF where they say they should have their shorter distance rides televised...why shorter? This thread is proof women can do and should be doing the same distance as men!
My little bug bear about Wimbledon is the ladies wanted and got equal pay, but weren't prepared to do the same 5 set matches. Reversed sexism I tell ya.
*runs temporarily away from thread after opening potential can 'o worms*

Pretty impressed with myself today... Even if I do say so myself. Been out on my first ride above ten miles...
Clocked up 12.8 miles at an average speed of 18.5mph. My fitness is coming on leaps and bounds. Thought to begin with I wouldn't make anything like a decent time, but turned it round in about 40minutes :-)
Think I'm gonna work on building up to fifteen miles now, and timing my run up to traffic lights a bit better

Cheers, dude
My, mycyclinglog bought me back down to earth when it totalled my average for all the rides I've submitted to 15mph, but still, something to build on!
