SlowFour on June 21, 2025 11:39 pm Strava: https://strava.app.link/JfJtsMFpoUb – One lap CCW was 0.88 miles – Yes I switched directions, twice. Counter clockwise had a better tailwind for the majority of the ride – If the roundabouts were backed up at all, I cut in on the sidewalk – Had 2 stops (mile 53 and mile 80) with a total stopped time of 15 minutes – Went through 2 bags of Haribo gummy frogs, 2 packs of Nature’s Bakery fig bars, and 3 32oz water bottles – A lot of drivers don’t understand how roundabouts work, you’re not supposed to stop IN the roundabout to let other cars in Edit: add more details
CheeseWheels38 on June 21, 2025 11:48 pm Did I miss the one where you did this on two roundabouts or did you go straight to three?
pelusko on June 21, 2025 11:48 pm Glad you explained the CCW. It looked like you’d taken the wrong turn a few times.
