Mountain Bike 1:40:00 [2] 12.0 mi (8:20 / mi)
Innerleithen red route.
Set off early to get back for the Women's tour of Scotland and to beat the forecast rain. No warm up on the flat today but straight up the hill from the town. A bit more technical than Glentress but still very enjoyable. Unfortunately I punctured coming off the top of the hill. In the 15 mins it took me to sort it out I got quite cold (it had started raining by then and I was only wearing a single layer). The rain turned the narrow trails into rivers and my brakes are virtually gone so turned into a survival exercise. I survived.
