    Only managed the first leg in the end, the heat on Saturday was ridiculous, hit 40 deg at one point according to the Garmin and was well over 25+ for much of the ride. Got back to the ride HQ just before Midnight, managed to get a few hours kip but woke up feeling dreadful, couldn't concentrate, no-energy, no appetite, forced down a bowl of rice crisps and felt sick afterwards.

    Ended up bailing from the ride and dozing for a couple more hours until I felt well enough to drive home.

    My first DNF on a big ride
    Well done for trying and better a DNF than you collapsing due to the heat.
