Ye Olde Jinney Ring Route

Opened the curtains this morning to see okish but not sunny weather, got ready for a departure at 10am to find it was lightly raining so sat about in cycling kit for half an hour... looked out again and rain had stopped! Thought I was going to resort to the gym for a second!

As the forcast said light rain at 2pm I decided on a shortish 35 mile ride on Ye old Jinney Ring route I used to take regularly as has a nice mini mix of undulations.  

Test of new rear wheel a success (I can throw the big box it came in away now!)
Old chain and cassette on for now, currently have my eye on a replacement chainset on ebay, or might just buy new chain rings... we'll see...

The old chain and cassette have plenty of life in them yet so not too urgent to replace.

No cake stop today boooo!!!
I did stop to spend a penny at The Jinney Ring and made a mental note to visit the chocolate shop there next time as have never been inside 😮

Had a few showers while out but nothing to bother me, rained quite a bit after I got back ha!

Today's Fuel:
Porridge, Weetabix & Honey combo (pre ride brekkie)
3 Fig Rolls
1 Litre water and Sis Go Electrolite mix.
Egg and brown sauce recovery toasty upon my successful return (Hurrah!)
