If you watched my webcam show between the hours of 6:00pm and 10:40pm GMT. You will know that people voted, that I had to wear the same wetsuit till 10:00pm. It’s the longest time, I wore a wetsuit so far this year. Something very hot being told I have to keep it on. After keeping it on for so long, the best way to wash it, was to get in the shower while still wearing it! Which in turn made for some great photos.
I had fun out on my bike today, doing what is only my fourth cycle of the month. By now should have at least done maybe 8 to 10 of them. At least I am fast catching up with the miles, I want to have done by the end of the month. Including today’s ride, I have now done 105.7 miles this month. So only need to do another 113.5 to make my goal of 220 miles. Which is the number of miles I did in February last year.
I have heard people saying that snow is coming back to areas of the UK this weekend, just hope they are wrong!! Can’t be doing with snow getting in the way of me wanting to get out cycling again.
I will now leave you with the route map, elevation graph and route statistics.

Well pleased with myself, just done my first 40+ mile cycle of the year
. But I am still way behind on miles this month. Due to all the snow and ice only been out twice. So have just 14 days, to another 180 miles. If the weather stays nice, should be easy to get that done!

Here are my favourite cycling photos from the month
Happy days I did my longest cycle of the year so far. I did 30.60 miles. I was hoping to do more, but my front light died on me. I normally have extra batteries on me. I looked everywhere in my cycling bag and could not find them. I even took the batteries out of my camera in the hope they would work. For some reason they did not work. Ready for the next cycle, I need to make sure I have extra AA batteries in my cycling bag again.
