The Imperial Century A Month Challenge Chatzone

[ColinJ]

September's ride done. Slipped in a second imperial century as part of our Basel to Dunkerque tour. If the rules allow it, I will be submitting the second September century as my qualifier, rather than the one done a couple of days earlier, simply because it includes a lap of the velodrome in Roubaix. Well, we were passing, and the gates were open...... Oh, and also because it was my 200th century. Here's picture of me being led out by @CharlieB , with @Trickedem behind the camera as always.

And a picture of the tour team:

You'd have to be careful in a race not to swerve off that narrow Côte d'Azur with its drop off!

I've posted the first century we did 3 days earlier which was much tougher.

I'll see how tomorrow's blood test goes, it was recommended that I do no exercise leading up to it.

Fingers crossed.

I hope all will be well. The current forecast looks quite promising at the weekend.

I have low Iron levels apparently and I'm booked in for further tests. The docs worried I might have an ulcer. I'll start out with the club on Saturday but if I have any feelings I'll head home :-/

Sunday will be a rest day before my next set of examinations :-/

All the best @HLaB , hope all goes well on your ride on Saturday and your next set of exams

A bottle of Mackeson Milk Stout a day will sort your low iron levels out ... well, thats what me gran used to say

 

[HLaB]

Well that its done a zero effort ride so as hopefully not to aggravate before my stomach scan on Monday; I'll let it and the doctor determine if I do anymore this year.
Done 90 odd miles and then the Garmin decided to play games for the next mile? So I started strava on my phone to finish it off.

Wake up. Look out window. Decide to go for a bike ride. It's what you do when you're retired. October in the bag - solo run to Ashford. 111 and a bit miles.
