Mountain Biking 2:10:10 [3] 25.32 km (5:08 / km) +866m 4:23 / km
last bike ride (training) before heading off to World Masters in Hungary.
Chose to go up Mont Boudry which I have never been able to achieve, but took the little road up twds Fruitière de Bevaix until a crossing. At the end almost "died". Just did not want to turn around somewhere along the road and wanted to go someplace distinctive. Was quite proud I made it to 1100 m, about 20 min away (I think) to Creux-du-Van area.
On the way down I took some not-paved bigger trails which I had always seen when other orienteers took them for long runs and hill training. But had to be careful as some trails had big rocks in it and was a very pumpy, steep ride back down. My hands hurt in the end from holding the brakes on/off to control my speed. Was tired when I got home. Beautiful day out.
