Don’t be too hard on yourself. I am very impressed with the ride you did. The cloud photo was brilliant. It would be good if you put the Strava image of your route up , so that viewers who don’t know the area very well can get a visual image. Same question about the hydration pack.
@@biking261 Thanks. I also think I should be drinking more as I feel pretty achy and struggle to sleep after a long ride. I suspect dehydration is a factor. I used Camelbak packs when mountain biking and the liquid flow from them was great. The bags I had were basically rucksacks and so a bit heavy for road riding. I might look at their lighter designs.
