Sorry, this isn't going to be a very good report but here goes anyway...
I made a huge mistake on Saturday, I rode the 62 mile route of the TDS, well, actually, it wasn't the ride's fault, it was mine...
It started the week before when I got sick, I stayed off the Bike all week (because I had to) and I thought I'd be well enough to do the ride, I normally get everything prepared the night before...
Bike. Check
Helmet. Check
Shoes. Check
You know how it goes...but I was just too tired and thought I'd do it at 5am in the morning, 2am I was still awake coughing...
5 am soon came around, my Buddy was gonna pick me up at 6 so I'd better get my Arse into gear...
I dosed up with cocktail of Advil, cold medicine, sinus pills...brilliant, I felt awesome!!
We got off to a good start

I struggled to the end, I was just so miserable, it was like a megga bonk, a never ending one that only got worse, I can't even remember the route so I'm glad I took some Video...
I'll deffinately do it again next year but I learned my lesson, never commit when you're too sick to ride, the same thing happened on a BF group ride last year...
Does anyone have any happy reports of the ride?
