Training Round Up

19
April
2009

I’ve borken the head block and got some miles in. Managed over a hundred this week. Housemates and good weather helped!

A few reps of Edge Hill have made the legs feel strong again. Feeling nervous about taking on the Ventoux though.

L'Etape du Tour 2009

Mont Ventoux: Start from Montélimar (Drôme) to the Mont Ventoux summit, 172 km and 4 climbs (côte de Citelle, col d'Ey, col de Fontaube, col de Notre-Dame des Abeilles).

The Bike

Trek Madone 5.0 (2007): I love this bike, some would say too much with the amount of time I spend maintaining it! But if I'm going to be going 50mph down a mountain I want to know its in good shape.

About this blog

Welcome to the personal blog of Robert A J Ford, a professional interaction designer and developer based in the UK.

I started this blog in 2007 to record my cycle training leading up to the Etape. I've never been one for diaries but this format works well with my job and lifestyle so I expanded it to record details of other training and events.

As the blog grew it became a space where friends and family followed my activities. Their feedback has inspired me to keep writing. I hope you find something of interest and please feel free to leave comments.
