Third cycle of 2019 ✅
That’s me now done my third cycle of 2019! Do think, I need to come up with a better title! Will get boring, when it reads, 100 cycle of 2019! LOL!
I did 21.55 miles, making is the longest cycle of the year so far! Also the cycle with the bigger elevation gain, which was 254 metres. But my average speed was way down to 10.8 mph.
Oh and also, when I was out cycling. I got to see something that does not happy very often and that was a closed A1. Which was due to lorry overturned, south of Colsterworth.

Second cycle of 2019 ✅
That’s me just done the second cycle of 2019! This time, I did 20.02 miles. Which, I am happy with. My average speed was not the best, at only 11 mph. But my body, is will getting over the cold/flu bug thing. So, I am just happy to be out on the bike!
Oh and yes, one of the signs, that I hate seeing the most, was out during my cycle! And that’s the hedge cutting one!

Now done 3% of #walk1000miles – 2019
That’s me now done 3% of #walk1000miles. Don’t worry, I am not to post about it every time, I add one percent. I will only mainly post, at every 10%, I hit!
My goal is to do, around 3 to 4% each week. So between 30 and 40 miles. Which, if the weather stays OK, should be very easy to do!
