RAS stage 1

What have I let myself in for? That was just mental, I have never felt as much pain in my life, the first hour we covered over 50km, the speed was just crazy. I started to cramp at the 60km mark and it was just suffering after that, just to give you an idea on the 1st KOM I hit 201 HR! and the average speed was just under 47km for the 150km stage! I managed to stay in the main bunch until the 2nd KOM and then got dropped with 27km to go, I came 13mins down, I'm just hoping the legs recover for tomorrow. Its is brilliant though, the pros, crowds the whole set up. Thanks to everyone who came out to support me today, I even had a sign with my name on it, off to bed now, I try update tomorrow
Fair play to u Morty, that's amazing, nothing like a handy start to ease into it!! Ul b flyin again tomorrow, best of luck over the week & enjoy!
