CYCLING 296KM AS FAST AS I CAN!

EPISODE #45 In this episode I’m off to Wales again… to take on a pretty special challenge. I’ll be taking part in the legendary Dragon Ride, it’s known as the toughest sportive in the uk, not only that but I’ll be taking on the 296km route aptly named “the devil” and for good reason. This monstrous route takes in a lot of know climbs in the area and is know for being absolutely relentless, taking many victims and unfortunately causing many to throw in the towel. So even though I knew all this before hand, I thought it was great idea to try and complete said “monstrous route” in the fastest time I could. Making this an absolute suffer-fest. This was right up there with some of the hardest cycling I’ve ever done… but what a fantastic day! See how I get on and see if it tempts you to take part next year..!
