Did I? How?

Chiltern 100 went fine, thanks. Tbh, the climbing got a tiny bit monotonous - up and down the same ridge of hills 20 times (not exaggerating).

But was v good workout, and I did it in a quicker time than I expected. Did my final big training ride on Sunday just gone - now recovering / tapering ahead of the big ride in Italy in a week and a half (about which I am simultaneously excited but also bricking it big-style).
