The training continues for Ten under the Ben

Today we did a road session of around 32 miles as we continue our run up to Ten under the Ben at the end of May. We did the usual route, along to Roslin, then on to Penicuik, then climb all the way to Gladhouse reservoir, back by Rosebury reservoir to Carrington followed by Rosewell and finally Roslin again before home. Baz's bike developed an alarming creak but on inspection at night all that was needed was a bit of grease in the rear hub and all seems to be well again. Clive's pink work bike somehow got air in the front hydraulic brake system after he'd changed the pads but with a bit of ingenious use of equipment meant for another brake system we managed to cure that as well...... don't ask me how, but it worked!
