I am so nervous about tomorrow, despite having never failed to complete a 200 (I’ve DNFed 300s 400s and 600s as well as finishing them but finished every 200 I’ve started). #audax #randonnee #randonneur #cycling #BikeTooter https://peakaudax.co.uk/Chirk.html
@wlukewindsor Try and relax and you will be fine.
I did fail one 200 in Feb 2011 from that area, Marple I think. I was rubbish from the start, poor clothing choice did not help, and 30-40km in knew there was no way I could finish. Rolled around a 300 a few weeks later.
@Blackhound I’ll probably be OK if my cold continues to improve!
@wlukewindsor I hope it goes well for you.
If you've done lots of longer rides it's easy to start trivialising 200s. And they have a way of reminding you this is unwise. In the words of Han Solo "don't get cocky kid" It's still a long way on a bike.
Suspect by not taking it lightly and already knowing there's a possibility of DNF you have appeased the #audax gods & you'll be fine.
@markn haha I like your superstition it matches mine (same reason I switched to a bike with mudguards for tomorrow)
