So.. I’m back from very damp Welsh Wales and I seemed to have coped reasonably well!
For the nutritionally astute as it were my diet over the weekend consisted off;
Friday lunchtime – 5*sausages that were in the fridge and “needed using”
Friday afternoon – obligatory Mc D’s stop on the way there
Friday evening – 12″ pepperoni special from anonymous takeaway in LLanwrst
4* Tetleys generic “Bitter”
Nearly 1/2 bottle of Co-op London Gin + tonic (slimline, need to make an effort)
Saturday morning – bacon sarnie, 3 * satsumas (effort again)
Saturday during ride – various energy bar things from CYB bike shop
Saturday afternoon – post ride welsh rarebit
Saturday evening – pasta thing from The Royal oak in Betwys Coed
– 8 bottles of San Miguel and 3 cans of generic bitter
Sunday morning – bacon sarnie
– 2* Weetabix
– 2* Satsuma
Sunday daytime – more energy bar things, chocolate eclair sweets and jelly tots
Sunday afternoon – post ride er bacon sarnie
So , despite this I managed to get around CYB red and LLangdegla without getting off and pushing (an achievement for me) and also managed to rediscover both the fun in biking and my downhill MoJo- ensuring I was at least down the hill first given the chance.
All in all a great weekend and I can highly recommend Caban Betws to stay in (a small but comfortable cabin outside betwsy coed) .
I like biking I do 😀
