VeloViewer Infographic : 12 July 2022 @veloviewer

Going by my VeloViewer Infographic, I’ve had 193 active days so far in 2022! Which means, I’ve done at least one cycle or walk each day so far this year!

That’s me now done a total distance of 1,437 miles this year. Which is made up 733 miles of cycling and 704 miles of walking!!

Now at long last…. I’ve done more cycling than walking!! Only took me 7 months for the cycling to overtake the walking…

Where it says running… That’s my walking data!

That’s my bike back on the road….

Happy days… That’s my bike back on the road… Watch the vlog that is coming soon, to hear all about it!!
