Boxing Day Ride 4.0

Well we didn’t see any boxing but there was plenty of natter, drinking and eating cake. Only 16 miles on the bicycles but it was done in very good company and lots of laughs.
We arrived at the starting check point (read : Pub) and enjoyed the view before we went in enjoyed beer and tea. We then jumped on our bicycles for our planned few laps of Richmond Park. But after queuing for half the way around the park we bailed out. Since the park was full of cars …

So I tried some bran flakes which I soon found out is not enough for me. 20min into my commute all my energy just drained away and the last quarter of the ride took longer than the first bit of the commute. Even with upping the intake I was drained even before I arrived.
