Winter Solstice Badgers Divide and Winter FKT for heading North to South. 

Since I felt my training was lacking some good volume for Strathpuffer 24 in 3 weeks I thought a Winter Badgers Divide would be a good training ride on the longest night of the year!! 

I thought I might sneak a wee weather window but I was wrong. From Loch Rannoch to Aberfoyle it was torrential rain and the ground was saturated and water logged which made for very hard going in the 2nd half! I only made the train I booked by 10min, nothing like the thought of having to buy another train ticket to keep the pace up in the last couple of hours! 

It’s safe to say this ride was definitely not even type 2 fun but more type I never want to do another Winter Badgers Divide again, so wet cold and miserable cycling in the dark for 13 hours! So turns out ideal training for the puffer!!
