I had to walk 6 miles home in Lycra

Well that cycle, did not go has planned! We out doing a 16 mile cycle, I got a flat front flat tyre! Lucky, I was well past the half way point when it happened! But I did not have anyway of fixing it! So I ended up having to pull my bike 5.8 miles back home! Yes I was dressed in my full Lycra cycling gear at the time!

This is the cycling gear, I ended up walking back home in!

If you don’t believe that I had to walk home, then check out www.strava.com/activities/605991941. The fact my pace was only 16:18/mi shows, that I was really walking!

Oh well, these things do happen! I do bet, that lots of people had fun checking me out in my Lycra, while I was walking! LOL!

You voted for it! So I am back in green Lycra!

I asked people via my facebook fan page (www.facebook.com/gordonval). Which Lycra I should wear for this afternoons cycle. Most of you went for green Lycra! So here are some photos, I took during today’s 16.29 mile cycle.

Feels great being, back in Lycra!

I had just about forgotten how good it feels wearing Lycra, while out cycling! Believe it or not. Not been out a cycle since 10th April! Also in the whole of April only did 11.2 miles! So in just one day, I’ve already one more miles, than I cycle in the whole of last month!!

I only did 34.9 miles this afternoon! Just, let’s hope it’s not the only cycle, I do this month!

Here are some, much needed Lycra photos of myself!! 🙂
