    90.8km door to door @21.8km/h for me.Boards Spin
    Great turn out today,one of the biggest I think I've been out with. Good to see the pink PX back out on the road,shame about the puncture though.
    Thought I had some decent climbing legs today and hit the first climb at speed but was soon passed by the real climbers. Some nice words of encouragement from niceonetom towards the top cheered me up.

    Climb towards Kippure felt tough but found my legs again on Luggala but over all the past week was starting to catch up on me. Tired legs by Larragh had me opting for the easier route home up Glenmacnass across Sally Gap and down stocking lane with Caroline, where we had a much more relaxed pace which was quite enjoyable.
    I had a bad time over the Wicklow Gap last week and didn't want a repeat of it this week.

    A fun cycle indeed. I think I got 150km, which makes 295 for the weekend.
    The baguettes in the hippy shop just taste so good.

    The hot chocolate and cake (particularly the choc/banana cake) are even nicer. However best to do that after doing SE/SM or Wicklow Gap, and not before - as I have often found out to my cost.

    120km for me, the first long spin I've had in Wicklow in months. Really enjoyed it, despite the odd drenching. Thanks to everyone who came out. With several people turning off at various points, I hope we didn't lose anyone along the way. Twas hard to keep track. Nice to see everyone.

    My computer is broken so I don't know how far I went today, but using my suffering as a guide I would say about seven or eight thousand kilometres. Souter, I think you will find you were not the slowest in the group; I was trailing behind you. Great to see the boardsies though, and thanks to tonto for devising that sadistic hillfest.

    That was only savvidge. 110km, 1370m climbing. More o' this please. Thanks Tonto for the organising, great Caroline got her phone back. Never seen so many bikes in a pile in Laragh as today, also never seen oysters as a pit stop fuel either. Kudos.
