julietSo, last May I tried to ride 600k and packed at 470k; this weekend I had another go.
And got in last night with 5 min to spare!
Ride report to follow, but I am feeling very pleased with myself (& also rather like I've been beated up - everything aches, & I'm exhausted). I rode much stronger than I expected myself to, which is always nice. Also I didn't cry once, which is rare :)
So that's my SR (Super Randonneur) series (200k, 300k, 400k, 600k) in my first year of audaxing.
Everyone else finished too: Liz got her first SR, as well (with a knee injury that would have undoubtedly caused me to pack - I am v impressed!) & Charlotte finished on fixed. Rich finished his first 600k, Matt (who was riding 2 200s rather than a 600) finished fine, & obv Steve A got in to continue his epic stab at the points record :-)
