117 or 118 miles with almost 13k of climbing
I felt right and was hoping to do it at the weekend but thought sod it and had a day off at first i wanted to do 10k of climbing for the tron bike and lost count how many times i went up the tower stopped counting at 6, got to 11k and i was around 70 miles then i thought i feel great so went for it so just riding around to get the miles, seen @Norry1 seen him hitting 3 w/kg and he got a decent lap time on the volcano circuit so i thought we could ride together and both get good times i lost him on the little climb and thought sod it and went like a savage hitting 5w/kg and i was 2 seconds from the jersey 2 seconds .

It was hard mentally i had iPlayer running next to zwift so could watch both which helped, a great challenge for my self and i surprised my self that i could still ride hard with so many miles in the legs, and also for the jerseys.

I got a pic of your kom time for you

Nice ride mate. If you feel it you have to go for it -even if you end up numb and without feeling in your bits​

I don’t know if he still does it but sometimes racing 2 or even 3x a day

Rarely races more than once per day unlike some others.

 

[berty bassett]

It's not on strava yet for some reason and in my activities in zwift it's only showing as 107 miles I'll get in touch with zwift to see what they say

I had no intention of emulating Dean but knocked off 100km this morning most of it on a blooming fast Zsun ride. I have even more respect for your bonkers ride dean- legs are sore.
