Cairn o mount Sportive

cairnomount

It turned out to be a very nice sunny day with some wind, perfect cycling conditions. Even managed to get sunburn on my arms – bit tender today. I was the only rider flying the flag for COG Velo (Chris). Tough climb up Cairn o’ Mount but enjoyable all the same near the beginning of the race. Then just when you think it will be a nice ride into Edzell the route takes you up the Cattethuns – nice little climb!

Surprised myself by finishing 4th overall – not too shaby!
