Here are my cycling statistics for April. I was hoping to do a lot more than just 404.48 mikes in April, but the wind and rain put a stop to that! I think you can let me off, since it’s been the wettest April since records began back in 1910. Read “April is the wettest month for 100 years” on the BBC News website, to show that I am not making that up!
Here is the data from April 2012.
- Total cycles: 17.
- Total Distance: 404.48 miles.
- Total Time: 32:08:52 (h:m:s).
- Avg Speed: 12.6 mph.
- Max Time: 5:05:44 (h:m:s).
- Max Speed: 32.8 mph.
- Avg Distance: 23.79 miles.
- Max Distance: 65.46 miles.
Data from: Garmin Connect.

After all the rain, we have been having the last number of days. I wanted to end the month on a high. End it on a high, I did! Just set a new record for the longest cycle in April. I did 65.46 miles, so just bet last April’s record by 0.9 miles. I did want to do a longer cycle, but my left-hand glove has a big hole in it. So my hand was starting to hurt. Also when the sun went down, it was starting to get a bit on the cold side.
I will now leave you with the route map, elevation graph, route statistics and photos.

Just to show that where I live, really is having a drought! I better add, that two days ago, you could cycle/drive through that. It’s now the highish I have seen it, in a good while.

Sorry about my website being off-line for most of the morning. The server: prohost7.34sp.com that this website is hosting on has been playing up. I believe that 34SP has fixed the problem. Going by their status page anyway.
But I don’t believe that at all. Since it took me around 15 minutes, just to get this post on-line. Because the website kept going off-line.
