Mountain bike route: Llandegla red variant
Distance/climb: 20k/400m
Another quick blast on the newly refurbished bike, again by way of pointlessly late and inadequate training for next weekend's off-road duathlon. I left very early, in order to squeeze this in before the rain arrived, but drizzle accompanied the initial climb through the now denuded forest. Loads of new variations, diversions and annoying closed sections throughout the red and black loops. I haven't been to Llandegla for a couple of years and this was probably a reminder to stay away, particularly given the outrageous parking fees they now impose. Still, some enjoyable new singletrack sections - particularly out to the west with good views over Gamelin, and a good way to get yesterday's race out of my legs. Took in a few variants along the way, keeping the pace reasonably high for training purposes and staying in the middle ring. Around an hour for the circuit.
