The Imperial Century A Month Challenge Chatzone

[cosmicbike]

April done, and even though it was only half the climbing I did in March it felt a whole lot harder. I suspect that no café stop didn't help, so I really need to plan better. On the plus side I visited lots of places I've not been to before, including London (assuming Kew counts?)

April`s ride done today in the wonderful company of @13 rider , @tallliman and @Supersuperleeds . There were a few hills involved, but none were hard enough to get me off the big ring

April's done 115 miles for me 5500 ft of elevation I did use the little ring . Had to press on for last 2 hours to get to a family commitment legs are feeling it now . Well done @tallliman for getting a ton in which was a struggle and thanks to @Supersuperleeds for sticking with @tallliman so me and @Lilliburlero could press on . Still feel slightly guilty about leaving them

@Supersuperleeds is a very handy rider to have on the strength when it gets a bit tough.

He kept me and @EasyPeez going when we were getting drenched on our Spurn ride last year.

Battling into a head wind and head sleet didn't faze him one bit.

April done. Another slow lumpy grind but only one big hill Birling. Lunch at the George in Yalding.

I use the little ring all the time. Lots of useful gears.

Birling - Yuk
The George - nice

Thank you, you and @EasyPeez did your fair share of keeping us going as well.

Oh well! I failed miserably for March.
I'd intended to go Thursday but had an early phone call to a dodgy shower and another job so had to follow the money and go to work instead!
Then Gail & I had an impromptu break to Margate, so that was March gone.
Roll on next year!

When? You keep organising that one when I can't make it, so probably still the case....? I might get another imperial 200 done this year.....

I knew @Supersuperleeds would coax him round and stay with him which made the decision to split easier . Buy he still sits on my wheel a lot

It's the bugger of being self employed.
It was an old client for the first job and an estate agent that gives me quite a bit of work for the other.
I don't like the thought of them going to someone else!

I'm still not fully recovered so I rode a March century anyway A very slow 102.1miles with a bit of hills and cobbles in between (Ride to Start, ToFl, Ride Back).
