Only 1,100k. Seriously fast start. Yeah, probably going a bit too hard, but whatever. I had to stop for 10 minutes. I got a really, really bad cramp in both my legs. Having a rough day. Leg cramps and punctures. Just had to carry my bike from the bottom of that valley up this trail. You can see a few more people coming up now. Look at that view. I did not sleep very well last night. I’m quite tired and there’s some massive climbs coming up. So, I’m just going to I found a shady spot in a park and I’m just going to shut my eyes for half an hour and then go from there. I was contemplating getting a hotel because my knee feels like it’s going to explode. It’s so painful. It was 34% on the postal road. So, I took a room in a hotel last night. Got loads of sleep, but I’m just going to try and get going because still 600k to the end and that was a long way. Definitely not going to plan. Right. New riding strategy. Zone two the whole way. Time to get down the hill. It’s half past 10 at night. Feeling good. Going to get a coffee and crack on. It’s quart to 6 in the morning. Did quite a big push yesterday. We just done a big old climb out of Ore Aldo as previously mentioned. Pretty spectacular views. I am extremely tired. I haven’t slept since yesterday morning. It would be nice to get there tomorrow morning. Now I can lie down properly. This is mentally tougher than the helenic. My knees hurt. Slept in a field 4 hours. So hopefully I’ll be done today. Nice. schedule. Yeah. West.
