Just a heads up for anyone that might be in the area of Coupar Angus Perthshire this Saturday 23rd.  or the other days.

Coupar Angus Cycling Festival is on 17th-24th June.

I attempted my first Everesting at the weekend. Target was 16 (not 26,that's the moon!) ascents of Gospel pass, near Hay Bluff. In the end I managed 10, which was around 18k ft and 104 miles in just under ten hours riding. Only a handful managed it, but involved riding through the night. I didn't fancy that, it was a technical descent with a strong gusting side wind.
