20231030 Mouldy Goes to Seville – MGS Session 011

Folks,

Thank you for visiting the site where aim to provide regular updates of the challenge “Mouldy Goes to Seville”

In earlier sessions we explained how we would simulate the cycle, you can read about it here

Todays route

The route today took us from Dundalk to Dunleer heading south in the direction of the Wicklow Mountains

In replicating the route which my friends from “The Road to Seville” team had taken enroute to Glendalough

As part of this, the team had stopped in Dundalk to meet folks from the Tain Bhoys CSC, this was on the same day that we would win the league on the 7th May 2023.

Today’s cycle

Having recently suffered some physical reactions and coming down with a cold at the same time, we had taken decision to rest.

Therefore it was pleasing to be able to contribute some miles today in order to get going again.

This cycle is all about gradually building myself up, with a focus on sustainability where we hope to avoid any major injury relapse.

Todays cycle saw minor climbing which was welcome, that is ahead of further climbing in the Wicklow mountains which are reserved for later !

Today’s kit

Focusing on comfort and the fact that I am a big frame, tight lycra is currently not my friend.

Therefore we decided to wear something more comfortable from the Celtic shirt collection and plan to do so for the foreseeable future

Keeping with gold theme, had decided to select the Celtic away top “retro version” from the centenary season which Celtic wore on games from 1st of January 1988., the strip would be adapted to include the amazing Centenary badge.

The kit is pictured below with a pleasant backdrop of the “The Road to Lisbon” cycling kit from from the 50th Anniversary Charity cycle in 2017
