17-Feb-2013 : First Grantham cycle of 2013

Another day, yet another good cycle. I have no idea how I did this. I did 33.76 miles yesterday. Did a different route today and did the same distance (33.76 miles). I don’t think I could do that again, even if I wanted to. During this cycle, it’s also the first time, I have cycled to Grantham this year. The first times of many, I am sure!

I will now leave you with the route map, elevation graph and route statistics.

16-Feb-2013 : Best average speed of the year so far

This cycle ended up being a lot longer than planned. When I set off my goal was so do around 25 miles, but I ended up doing 33.76. Making it the longest cycle of February 2013 so far. It also ended up being the cycle with the best average speed so far, set at 13.3 mph.

I only took two photos during the cycle. All at the same location, which was next to the A1 between Little Ponton and Great Ponton. So here is my favourite out of the two of them.

12-Feb-2013 : Cottesmore – Rutland Water – Ryhall cycle

I am happy with days cycle. I ended up doing 30.73 miles. So making it the longest cycle of February 2013 so far. I did get covered head to toe in mud during the Rutland Water section. So had to give my bike and myself a good wash when I got back home!

29-Jan-2013 : Longest cycle of January 2013 so far!

That’s more like it. Just beating my longest January cycle ever. Which I set on Sunday 29th January 2012. Which happens to be 1 year ago today. I only just worked that out, when looked at my cycle log.  Also happy now my total for this month is looking much better! Still way, way down on January 2012. But much better than I was doing two days ago!!
