Great 48.34 mile cycle!
That sure was a great 48.34 mile cycle! Making it one for the longest cycles of the year! Only down side, is only got the time for maybe one more cycle this month. Since I am off to Scotland on Thursday, then going to Cyprus for two weeks. So will be bike less, till I get back at the end of the month!
Knowing that, I am not going to get much more cycling in before the end of the month, did make me want to get a long one in today!

Another cycle back from work!
That was another good cycle back from work! Now cycled to and from work twice this year! So already more than last year! Last year, I cycled to work twice. But got a lift back from work with my bike in the car!
So by cycling to and from work, just two times, I’ve already saved around 96 car miles!
You can check out the statistics and the route I took at www.strava.com/activities/674380960.
Now done 603.8 miles this month!!
That’s me now done 603.8 miles of cycling this month!!!!!! Well pleased with that! But still got a long way, to go! Need to end this month on at least 777 miles! To get my “July Distance Challenge” trophy this month on Strava!
But at least, I got my “July Climbing Challenge” trophy, which means I’ve climbed over 8,000 meters!
Check out my trophy case so far @ www.strava.com/athletes/11925537/trophy-case
Ended this week on 182.2 miles!
I ended this week on 182.2 miles! Making it second most miles, I’ve done in a single week this year! Really do, hope I can do 200 miles in a single week, before the month is out…
Oh, if you follow me on twitter @ gsvalentine. Sorry about all the EURO2016 tweets, but I was getting right into it! Thanks to Scott Mills and his #R1commentary.
Normal tweets, will be back in the morning!! 🙂
Fourth, 30 mile cycle of the week!
I am doing extra well on the bike so far this week! Not long back in from my 4th, 30 mile of the week! So far done 125.4 miles, so just over my goal of 110 miles! Of course, still got Friday and Saturday left! Yes, I know I missed out Sunday, but next to never cycle then, since I always try to take Cooper out a long walk then!
But still all going well, should end this week on around 150 to 160 miles 🙂
Just 20.2 more miles to go…
I’ve only got 20.2 more miles left to do, then I will have done more miles on the bike, than I did in the whole of last year!
That really does show, that 2015 was not a good year, cycling wise for me! So really hoping that I make my goal for 4,000 miles this year! Of course, would like to do many more…
