Did a loop from Glengarriff to the Priests leap from the Cork side. Enjoyed rain, hail and sun in my 2 hours out! Only 42k but a decent bit of climbing.

godtabh · 24-04-2014 6:59am

Cold but pleasent 45km at an average of 30.5km. Summer is coming!

Alek · 24-04-2014 9:05am

Hard core!

40km extended spin into work around Malahide, Swords, the airport and into town. What a lovely morning for it, so ready for the summer!!!

zl1whqvjs75cdy · 24-04-2014 10:58pm

Attempted to cycle up athgoe Hill. Mistake. Think I'm still a bit green around the gills for it. Nearly made it, the last bit killed me and I had to pull in. Definitely pushed myself as hard as I could so happy with my effort. It'll act as a good yard stick for my progress. It's nice and close to me so it'll be satisfying when I can get to the top.

Threw in an extra 25 km for good measure after the failed Hill attempt to make the spin worth it. All in all a nice evening.

surripere · 24-04-2014 11:46pm

Tough hill that, right nasty little ramp at the end. Good man, keep at it

wirelessdude01 · 24-04-2014 11:48pm

Athgoe from any side is a b@stard of short nasty hill.

jober · 25-04-2014 9:49am

That's an impressive solo run. Well done!

I've managed to knock out 209.7 since Monday by extended commutin' but I am on target for the month.
Most of it done on my Boardman (I think LPB would be chuffed that it has been well used. 1,900 ish km since January!)

Bleedin' Strava badges own me and next month looks a b_1_tch

Indeed - only did one so far - Ardattin 200.

(I do shiftwork and tend to work a lot of weekends which makes organised cycles difficult to do).

furiousox · 26-04-2014 1:46pm

Just back from a Drogheda-Naul-Stamullen-Julianstown-Bettystown-Drogheda spin.
Was hard to stay upright at times around the Naul between the greasy road and the crosswind.
Nearly lost it on a gritty corner, so was extra cautious after that.
No PBs today

smacl · 26-04-2014 1:55pm

Very heavy crosswinds on the featherbeds this morning as well. Trying to stay on the right side of the road was a challenge.

nak · 26-04-2014 3:04pm

Figured the track was a lost cause, so stuck the knobbly tyres back on the cyclocross bike and headed to Phoenix Park. Great fun, but sadly felt like winter again.

Inquitus · 26-04-2014 3:11pm

Very fast going west!

Sarz91 · 26-04-2014 4:17pm

60km with a decent amount of climbing involved. Really windy day. First enjoyable spin since getting to the Lake District.http://www.strava.com/activities/134339160

Shedite27 · 26-04-2014 5:37pm

It was windy today

Cookie_Monster · 27-04-2014 5:56am

just clocked up 20,000km on strava today with an easy 50km

zl1whqvjs75cdy · 27-04-2014 12:29pm

45km today. Decent average speed of 27km/hr and managed it without a stop. Bit of a breeze out there which was ****e. My endurance is getting better, getting further into the cycle before I feel like collapsing. Yay.

Weepsie · 27-04-2014 12:44pm

70 km from Navan Road - Leixlip - Maynooth - Dunboyne - Kilbride and a few km around the Phoenix park. Averaged 27.5 km/hr. I was expecting rain around 10 oclock but it got gradually nicer, a bit of a headwind at times and 30k-35 was a slog but grand thereafter

godtabh · 27-04-2014 12:45pm

Nice 90km today. Stepaside, John Foxs, Enniskerry, Glencree, Sallygap,Largh, Roundwould, Enniskerry and home.

I wonder how many of those names I spelt right?

All but two I think.

Quick 49k spin before LBL http://www.strava.com/activities/134690853

t'bear · 27-04-2014 3:04pm

Nice club spin (80k) with some hills. Got home and I am 20k off my Strava Specialized challenge. D'oh. Must resist not going back out.

G rock · 27-04-2014 5:38pm

Inspired by lusk doyle's training log, I went out today after a seven month kid-induced hiatus.

103km.

No legs but very very happy to be out!

LennoxR · 27-04-2014 6:03pm

Was going down the Sally Gap today towards Kilbride, saw a load of people going up it, many in Bray Wheelers gear. A marshal at the top said it was a sportive. Does anyone know what this was? Just curious.
