Anybody out there watched the Tour De France and cringed as a cyclist gets spat out of the back of the peleton? That was me on the club ride yesterday. After the good session on Friday I knew that I had good legs, but maybe I had over done things? By Sunday, I just could not pedal properly and for the first time since I started riding with the club, I was dropped. The guys did ease up and wait for me but I told them to continue without me as I would only hold them back. I eased off and linked up with someone else who had been dropped and completed the ride to the coffee stop as a duo. Still enjoyable but I didn’t really feel good at any point of the ride. After the coffee stop we regrouped. However, on the return leg, I was dropped again. I just couldn’t hold the pace. I am not too worried, as I had had quite a hard week and you don’t turn into a bad cyclist over night. However, I do feel the need to prove to myself that it was just an off day; hence I may test myself next Sunday, after I am sure that I have recovered properly. I am having a long over due easy week now – would sure appreciate you bloggers reminding me that I am supposed to be having an easy week!

What do you reckon to this as a solution to my bad ride?!

Yes it does have a motor on it.
