Did 11 kilometres in less than an hour, and with the outside temperature being 27 centigrade.
The last kilometre out (and thus the first kilometre back) was a cooker. One drop of 20 metres in about 600 metres horizontal distance, then a 40 metre drop in about 400 metres horizontal distance. Felt a little bit of brake fade on the 40 metre drop. Having melted rim brakes before (and painted the rim with rubber every time), as long as the brakes don't outright melt I'm happy!
