I came 7,672th out of 15,051

I used the figures to work out that for the last 10 mile section we averaged 26 mph!!  If you had told me that at the start I would never have believed you, amazing what a bit of adrenaline and a downhill can achieve.

Can't remember the last time I ride that far in a day

In all the excitement I forgot to take my obligatory speedo picture,  so here it is

No such thing as a free breakfast

Maybe not,  however today at the Ride  London 100 sign on we got a free beer style recovery drink and some pistachios. Seeing the number of signing in booths make you realise the size if this event. ,#goingtobemassive

At least it wasn't raining

Got home a bit early and thought I would go for a quick ride.   Started off Ok but got a puncture after an hour, it was then I realised I had left my tool kit at home.  Started to walk the 7 miles home but luckily Dad was able to pick me up.  Was way too hot to be walking.  All good exercise though.
Now need to get some new tyres on and give the bike a service ready for  Sunday.
