Hi All,
Did my most ever this morning, 23.47 miles. Across the Salisbury Plains then back via the back roads.
It was a great and fun ride although my back did feel it, with the stones on the tank tracks. Having said that, a few weeks ago and I would have been in agony. My core has toughened up so well I am rarely getting back problems with the two discs embedded in my spinal cord.
On the way round my feet started going numb again and I had to get off and jump around to get some feeling back in them.
When I got back I could hardly walk. After carefully taking my shoes and socks off, I realised my feet were dangerously cold. I suffer with cold feet anyway. So I think this has proven I really do need to keep the overshoes on at this time of the year. During the week, whilst commuting I have had them on due to the wet and had no problem with my feet.
Apart from that, it was a great ride.
Regards
Chris
