Today’s cycle

Seen us again make fairly balanced bumpy cycle in direction of Wexford Town, with Rosslare Port becoming increasingly closer which is now circa 17 miles away

The early climbs where in the 2 to 4 percent range, with a long climbing taking place at towards the end of the cycle with some of them being the in 8 and 9 percent range.

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 wear the “Concept” 1986/1987 gold away shirt, which was never worn by the team.

This differs slightly from the actual strip as this one had a round neck and sponsor is in green

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