Escape From Alcatraz 2010

Nothing stopping us...



Yesterday, we headed out for a good 50+ mile ride into the Surrey Hills, pretty average weather and we were definitely back in the warm winter gear after the amazing weather in Majorca 2 weeks ago.

With race day fast approaching we had planned to put in some hill reps on the nasty Crocknorth Road hill climb - with an average gradient of 10% and a maximum of 16%, it's great training for the hills of San Francisco, however the road was closed, but we managed to ride up and squeeze under the barriers at the top! After a ride on to Leith Hill, then Box Hill where we put in some hill sprints, we were both suitably knackered!
