Training Session 2

Back up to Ladybower again as had a day off from work. Its still freezing, car thermometer said it was 6 degC but the wind was strong today with ice still on the Lake and some snow on the ground. Rode the reservoir road clockwise dropping onto the footpath at the end of the ride to break up the road section. There was a strong head wind coming back from the A57 to the Fairholmes car park , it was like riding into a brick wall. My toes were still BLOODY FREEZING even with merino wool ski socks on.

New saddle was really good and I set it up a bit more forward than usual. Off to the gym to do some core work and I think i've cracked it.

Heres my ride stats for today.
