Wow! Still cycling and boy o'boy is it getting hot here! If I go out any earlier I'll be out cycling before I've gone to bed - such is the desire to avoid getting utterly roasted by the heat of the sun...
In typical fashion I was out and about from the dangerously early (for a weekend) 7am - the mission to finally break the 100km record I'd set myself as a target...
Seems that this is just not possible without giving my body a helping hand during the task with fruit and isotonic drinks - I know I wasn't destroyed but the lack of available sugars took it's toil for sure!
All in all I managed 80km on Saturday before returning home, getting changed and going to work...
Just in case I wasn't suicidal enough I also went out on Sunday - this time a more relaxed (!) late afternoon session was had - it still hurt - but then that is my way... Ended up over at the Khao San Road - amusing as ever and by the time I got back (just before dark) I'd managed to add 21km to my weekend total - wahoo!
So this week the mission is to actually go to the supermarket (for the first time in f'in ages) and grab the sort of things hard-core cyclists tend to need while on the move - should be fun!
