Headed down through Dublin and then up into the mountains via the Cruagh climb. It's been a good while since I've been on a proper hill so absolutely murdered myself going up there and put in what I think might be my best time, hooray!
Shortly thereafter, when heading up the climb past Glencree toward the foot of Kippure my non driveside crank fell off
Thought my cleat was going at first with the lateral movement but then had the whole crank dangling from my foot. I choose to believe that I put down so much power on the Cruagh I literally tore my crankset apart, and not that my maintenance has been crap lately Put it back together sans endcap (god only knows where it is) and headed home down Stocking Lane nice and gingerly, didn't want any more incidents! 72km all told, would've preferred longer but hey... 0 -
Tried to do my longest spin ever, 75+km, but the road I had planned on taking was closed (cars were getting through, but there was bollards across most of the road, so I assumed they were local access only) and I didn't want to chance it. So I took a turn off and got utterly utterly lost. 40km later I find myself practically outside my village, no idea how. So I just went home
PS Just looked at gmaps and still have no idea where I was today. Nice, though!0 -

Adis about 50k today.
Tallaght to Blessington via Lugmore and then the N81. Head out to the Vallymount road and turned to head back after the first bend after the narrow bridge. Stuck to the N81 on the way home and learned the through meaning of being dropped on the road between Blessington and Brittas.
This was my longest cycle by about 15k so an average speed of 20kph over the rolling roads was grand for me.
I tried to improve my technique so I spun the legs off myself.

Depends. This has a random, and light, sample. Theres more details available in the training logs alright.
And, many won't have their own training logs...0 -

Yesterday 80km, Killarney Kenmare via Kilgarvan then back via Molls Gap, almost torpedoed at Ladies View by a car suddenly braking ahead for some reason To let another car reverse out of a parking spot, a bit of swerving on my part required.
100km today from Castlemaine to Tralee then Castleisland Killarney Killorglin and Castlemaine again, saw the ambulance with a lone cyclist near Ballymac and they were geeting the stretcher out even though he was standing? He must have come off his bike but had happened before we passed.
Met a charity cycle group on the road from Killarney near Farranfore, 2 groups of c. 40 riders each with outriders and cars but not sure who organised it?
There was a van with some Clare club or other written on the side.
All in all a nice weekend on the kerry roads.0 -

About 70K. Cork - Dripsey-Coachford-Macroom and took the N22 back to Cork.
Few light showers and a hell of a head wind on the way out. Thought I was stationary once or twice.
Took just under 3 hours including phone call stop, toilet stop and several traffic light stops.
Did a hilly 2 hours yesterday ( maybe 40K ? ) so legs a little tired today......but I enjoyed it.
Saw a few cyclists but expected to see more of them.0 -
