    Racing again last night. Got my 12.5 mile pb down to 32.19. only one more race on that course this year though.

    That's an impressive average speed.

    A hot cycling week (well hot for southern England anyway) is forcing me to become a morning cyclist - .
    Good week though with 170 miles ridden including today's 44 miles - that's about as far as I could make two bottles last.

    Hardly any riding for me this week, just 25 miles.
    Combination of a mini heatwave that I struggled to cope with on the bike, too much work and too little sleep.

    Tried to do an indoor session in the gym with intention of doing a FTP test and spent the entire session fighting machine and connectivity issues (two bikes, my Garmin and even my wireless headphones all decided to play up!).
    Final chance to fit a 20min FTP test into last 21mins of my allocated gym session was going well at PR pace and machine randomly decided to switch itself off after 10 mins.

    Decided not to join an organised ride this morning due to a poor weather forecast and it stayed dry so went out for a solo ride in the afternoon and got caught in a thunderstorm so bad I had to abandon and call for rescue.

    I must have upset the cycling gods!! :neutral:

    I was going to say I'd had a quiet week, but not that quiet ;)

    A few zwift sessions and a time trial on Thursday. Slower than the last 2 weeks but still decent. Then just over 3 hours (87km) today. I avoided the rain for the first 2 hours but not the last one. I'd spent yesterday afternoon cleaning my bike and putting new shiny bits on it (chain, cassette, brake pads, tyres) so I'm a bit annoyed it wasn't a nice dry ride!
