High intensity single speed blitz up and back the usual routes tonight. Roughly an hour (47 minutes ride time). Grinding away testing the knee, which seemed to enjoy it. Hard work in the steeps, really struggling with it all, I'm SO unfit - breathing hard and heart racing.
Down Thomson's #1 then seated climb back up road, popped up to the rock shelter, quick talk with Doug and see if there were any blackberries around (nope), then seat down and bombing, so much flow. Another log across my favourite so I'll have to get up with the axe this weekend. Otherwise, lovely descending all the way, especially below the dog park car park, weaving nice and loosely through those curves, and awesome flow over the jumps and through the oaks and beyond. Popped out on H'Ell and clambered to road and home.
Short and sharp, 5.8 kms with 205 m gouged out of the acclivity
