Done. Went out at sunrise:
Got back at sunset (wasn’t planned):
Even though I put on road pedals and used my road shoes, I couldn’t help a few gravel segments. They were mostly fine, although one had 100m of ankle deep liquid mud, while another had been underwater and still had very deep puddles on it. I also took a look at one byway, then turned round and went another way, it looked unrideable on 40mm tyres.
Strava threw a shit fit after a couple of hours, but I didn’t notice, as my phone was in a bar bag. Finished with it saying I’d done 147km, but did the auto correct distance thingie and it’s now saying 231km. True distance is probably the mid point of those two, I’ll work it out tomorrow, if I have time.
