Tough trike run today due to the wind and the hills. It was also a bit chilly whenever I stopped due to the northerly near gale.
Leaving my house there is a steep dip then it is mostly climbing for about 4 miles on the two most used roads. Coming back the wind was so strong I was pedalling downhill in places but it did not seem to give me much assistance on the outward leg.
Too much traffic as well which did not help. Individually none of them were a problem but constant pulling into passing places means you cannot get a constant rhythm.
Thank goodness for the e assist which helped on the worst bits.
Connel Bridge in the news again with what seems like a 2 mile queue on the north side as an RTA has closed the A82 at Glencoe and all traffic is diverted on to the A828. Heading south the junction with the A85 at Connel means a right turn into constant traffic both ways.
