Fortius strikes again….
The weather down here was hideous, so my long ride was on the Fortius. I’ve not been outside on a ride now for 10 days, so that’s 7 rides on it in that time!

It’s been mostly watts based intervals – 6 x 4 mins above AT or 2 x 20 mins above TT, so all pretty tough. Today I did the full Pyrenees stage on Fortius, that was up the Col du Peyresourde down to Col Azet, up and over that and then finish off with the Pla D’Adet, about 3 hours of mostly climbing. I’m really glad that the Pla D’Adet isn’t on the itinerary for my Trans Pyrenees ride next summer, that is a gruesome climb.

I really want to get outside and ride, I just can’t stand crapping up my nice bike, and can’t get motivated to ride my not so nice bike…
