Rough Ride 2006

I ended up trying to do the longer route (80k) again this year in the Rough Ride in Kington. Unfortunately I was totally wrecked before I reached the last water stop, and ended up cycling back to the finish line on the road. Some combination of being tired, suffering from the heat and perhaps what ever lergy Kat's suffering from clearly had a good go at finishing me off. I even felt travel sick while driving myself 5 miles to my mother's house afterwards.

The course had changed somewhat since last year - and was once again very good. I just wish it had been cooler - perhaps I would then have been able to complete it?
