Ah, Matt - thank you so much for your very kind review!
Really is impossible for me to try to explain what that means to me. I put a lot of work into the blog and a positive review like yours really does give me a warm glow inside and the urge to keep it going. I haven't got any long rides planned at the moment as I am still recovering from injury that has been recurring, but really flared up after the latest ride. I'll be back though, I am sure of that - just keeping things short at the moment, commuting is all.
Do please feel free to add any comments you wish to the blog entries themselves, they'll be very gratefully received!
I love your confidence in me, it would be great if I can live up to your expectations and bag TCR one year. I do try to keep the blog honest as there are lots of blogs on long and ultradistance cycling, but most never mention things going wrong, injury, that sort of thing. I am very much just a normal human being, not some kind of super-cyclist and I like that to come across in the blog.
Good luck with your riding and I have every confidence that you will bag your 100 miler, do let everybody here know when you do that.
All the best,
Nick.
Thanks, will do. I've requested to follow you on Strava btw.
Also, would love to know more about the kit you have been using to date - bike, GPS, bags/storage etc. I am currently after a bike with more of an endurance geometry than my Ribble R872, so any real world feedback would be appreciated.
