Today’s cycle

Seen us continue with the ascent of the Wicklow Mountains, the recent shorter cycles in time proved worthwhile in the preparation for today.

Percentage climbs in the most part where between 3 percent and 8 percent

Today’s cycle was relentless with the climbing and tiring towards the top of the peak, we picked up a few niggling pains today, so hopefully these will ease of by tomorrow.

This cycle is all about gradually building myself up, with a focus on sustainability where we hope to avoid any major injury relapse. You can read more about the why here.

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, we had decided to select the gold goalkeeper shirt from 2022-2023

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

Kit = 2022-2023 – Goalkeeper – short sleeves
