McDonalds Corners exploration of Lanark Highlands by ripnriding at Garmin Connect - Details
Great to connect with Mr. Bowen on these Cottage weekend rides. The route was in his hands and did he ever plan a BEAUTY....took an hour to drive to and an hour to return...however ride time exceeded travel time so...;)
Mikey was looking anxious as he was unloading his bike..didn't know if this was due to the fact that he was looking to rip my legs off or what? Our plan was a 100 k plus route, however after a fairly lengthy climb of a section of road that was gravel, we opted to choose the asphalt path at the crossroad between the 75 or 100 k junction. Legs felt, how do i put this....., freakin awesome!!!!!!! Really!!! Every climb was nontaxing and recovery was decent given the fact that this was a pretty good route of vertical.
Fuel of choice....powerade and a boost......thinking this is my new and improved fuel..DON'T BELIEVE the HYPE!!! Used to be a believer of HEED...PERPETUUM blah blah blah...but after last ride..will have to test this approach again to confirm. Quite happy that this turned out to be a pleasant one considering I had...what had to be....maybe....3 hrs of sleep due to fact cottage was HOT HOT HOT. This kid don't function well in heat at slumber time.
Next event is coming up quicker than I thought....Substance Projects Marathon...figah the 60 k is where it's at. Plan for this week...supposed to be stinkin hot...bugs are just plain stupid at farm...some consistent out and backs to CB and perhaps a rendezvous with Tommy on his return from Ireland to see if he lost any of his fitness while sippin suds...speakin of which.. a great beer, Barking Squirrel lager BIG fan so far...hmmm, maybe I should try another juuuust to be sure ;)
