I'd bet if you rode that route unloaded once in a while you'd appreciate all the work you're doing

I was slow starting today, but got upto pace quickly, had a fastish guy on an MTB keepng with me for a while, he got across a set of lights faster than I, and so at the next lights leading to a steep bridge, I had to dial it up and fly up the hill only to be stopped at a train crossing minutes later, hehe. It was some good training, though and it was all in good fun.

The northern path of Marilyn Bell park (?) is open again, for those that ride the MG trail.
