Day 2
Approx 10k on the TT bike coaching cycling skills at Darley Moor…a beautiful sunny evening but very blustery and quite cold in the wind…
Nice to put in a few accelerations on the tt bars with the breeze behind…but a wheezy slog against the wind and on the (very slight) incline…
A birthday in the household means a glass or two of wine tonight…

There and Carsington Water have their own freaking ecosystem and unique weather 
I can be bone dry, no wind and 20° in Ashbourne … as soon as you get up to either one, it’s wet, windy and bloody freezing

it’s astonishing…by Darley Moor standards, it was glorious yesterday evening…but if you stood still for more than 5 minutes, you quickly chilled…

Day 4
My 6 month DSc review with Uni…so a full on day…
The plan was to dig the road bike out of the back of the garage and swap the pedals from the TT bike…before realising that the di2 needed charging…there followed a long search for the cable…
By the time it had charged, the light had gone…and so it becomes a rest day with a big slab of pizza to make me feel even more lazy…

This is the thing that makes me not want Di2, although 100% of people seem to rave about it.
Good old mechanical 105 never goes flat

I’ve seen people stuck in the big ring in the middle of the Peaks and having to call home for a lift.
(These people don’t know the days of 53/39 23-11 gearing, though)
If you can’t fix it roadside, it’s a no from me

wouldn’t it all be downhill from there?

‘Kin ‘ell no 
I remember when I started cycling again and planned a nice 100 miler out to Bakewell and home, it took me 4 hours to do 50 miles to Bakewell, when I realised no matter which way I took back involved “hills” (I just headed back via the A6, which was grim - Taddington hill is awful, then it’s Pike Hill, then Long Hill reverse…Although the descent is good!)
