nivsRight. #LapThelough time! 🚴🏻♂️
First leg done. It’s 8C, wet and windy. Wish I’d brought my leggings and heavier socks 🥶 #LapThelough
Someone is here on the same bike as mine. We will be best friends! #LapThelough
Halfway now, at the lunch stop. Legs are starting to get a bit sore, can’t feel my feet though. #LapThelough
There will be no ice cream sold at Ballyronan on this #LapTheLough
25 miles to go. Absolute unit of a headwind the whole way. Slog Mode. #LapTheLough
Bloody. Hell. Welll, not blood, but rain and wind.
At the finish now with a cup of soup. Food and few more miles back to the car to make it 100.

John Parker@nivrig Time for a well earned complete physical and mental collapse. 🫡
@Middaparka Nah, I’m fine. I can’t feel my legs at all now 👍🏻
Ponder@nivrig In that weather, well done!
Robee? Na! 🌈@nivrig Wow that’s amazing! So far!!!
@RobeeShepherd Never mind the distance, look at the calories :)
@nivrig That is crazy!!! You must have been nibbling like an ultra runner all day!!!
@RobeeShepherd Yep. Energy gels and bars, plus meals. I’m probably still in deficit but I can’t eat any more today!

Geoff@nivrig We've been watching the old series Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, and now I've been earwormed by a Lap The Lough version of the theme tune:
🎶 Ridin' on a bike,
From morning ti night,
That's livin' alright...🎵
