Into the valley
Ride 66 of 100
First big group ride of the year today, Calderdale style, so big a group that we voluntarily split so as to keep things moving, trails were wet and muddy, slippy and testing and made me realise just how rubbish I really am in these conditions. Legs were just ok, again no zip but didn't drop to the granny gear and cleaned all the climbs so something must be happening down there.
By far the best thing was seeing some old friends whilst riding some old trails, a very welcome return to both.

Blowout
Ride 65 of 100
Road ride today, no zip in my legs, mystery blowout on the front whilst cranking over for a turn that focused the mind just a bit, not many random thoughts after that, lots of roadies out today, lots of nice bikes on view and in particular an old restored Bianchi being ridden by a guy in baggy shorts, chapeau !

Headwind
Ride 64 of 100
Road ride to be efficient, turned out to be anything but, strong headwind, rain, muddy broken lanes.
26 miles in just under 1 hour 30 minutes.
dangerous drivers all over the place
must be a bank holiday.

Rain, hail and wind
re arrange those three words to make things better
Wind, rain and hail
Hail, Rain and wind
didn't really matter as I was as wet an otters ear already, just got on with it.
20 miles in exchange for disc pads and a new drive train.
