On my 1st day my average hr was 157 for 5hr45m and maxed out at 194.

dont think I could match that , usually when I climb I try to keep heart between 150- 160 for long climbs then I do sod all going down other side so guess hr av would be bit lower - 194 and I would be mouthing "medic" but doubt if any sound would come out

I didn't notice id gone that hight.
It was 28c and was low on fluid, a support car came passed and must habe noticed me struggle as he was offering water. Every day after i kept an eye on the garmin and tried to stay 160 max

you have the heart of a humming bird !!

Just unfit

 

[shimceltic]

I wont be on tomorrow, knee still sore.
Ive had a bruise on arm for 2 weeks so I suppose if itntakes weeks for a visable bruise to go what i cant see under my knee will take a few weeks to clear also. Dont wanna ride for the sake of it and not heal fully.

 

[berty bassett]

heal well shim

I will, if anyone else wants too. If only you Randy, we can do it at your speed. However, I might push you a bit!

Thanks for the offer but I bet you’d have a very tough time dialing back To my speed.
I have fallen way off my gains of the last month. I am going to do the Rouvy level up again starting next week. It really worked in October but with travel and just plain slothfulness I’m down 20 points on my Strava fitness.
Hopefully someone will join that can give you a challenge.

 

[Brusgaard]

I am not starting unless someone report here that they want to ride…

 

[Randyberlin]

Just put a time in. Humiliated by my ghost.

 

[Barbes66]

Sorry guys - been away for a couple of weeks and back now but with the cold. I'll try and make it next week if anyone's riding.

 

[Milzy]

Coming down with a common cold so resting. I’ll solo the course on Monday or Tuesday.

 

[Brusgaard]

Anyone want to do stage 3 in 2 hours?

 

[Randyberlin]

Ill join at the start if anyone else is in. I may be able to best my Thursday time.
9 minutes slower than my Feb. of 2023 time.
59 minutes vs 50.
