Cycling from Killearn to Rowardennan

Just to think I was sure, I was not going to get any more cycling in during my time in Scotland. Well I was wrong. I found the time to cycle from Killearn to Rowardennan. Bring my total number of miles while up in Scotland to 144.21. So not to bad for just four cycles. It’s also only the second time, I have ever done this cycle. Vlog to follow soon..

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

Thornhill and Drymen loop cycle

I am well pleased, I have got out three cycles while up in Scotland. Even with all the rain and how busy I have been, seeing friends and family.

My aim was to do at least 100 miles up here. So far I have done 113.39. Can’t see me having the time to get any more cycling done. Since I am seeing a good friend tomorrow, then my Mum and Dad get back from there holiday on Wednesday. Then it’s back to England on Thursday.

I also can’t wait to get my Killearn area cycle map updated, with all the new roads I have covered, since I last updated it.

Duke’s Pass and Loch Katrine loop cycle

So happy I have now done this cycle, it’s been on my hit list for a while. The map may make it look boring, but believe me. It’s anything but. I was hoping to get lots and lots of photos during this cycle. But the rain put a stop to that. It was raining just about all the time. I did get lots of filming done. So I will uploading a vlog to go with this cycle in the next day or so.

April 2012 cycling statistics

Here are my cycling statistics for April. I was hoping to do a lot more than just 404.48 mikes in April, but the wind and rain put a stop to that! I think you can let me off, since it’s been the wettest April since records began back in 1910. Read “April is the wettest month for 100 years” on the BBC News website, to show that I am not making that up!

Here is the data from April 2012:-

  • Total cycles: 17
  • Total Distance: 404.48 miles
  • Total Time: 32:08:52 (h:m:s)
  • Avg Speed: 12.6 mph
  • Max Time: 5:05:44 (h:m:s)
  • Max Speed: 32.8 mph
  • Avg Distance: 23.79 miles
  • Max Distance: 65.46 miles

Longest April cycle EVER!

After all the rain, we have been having the last number of days. I wanted to end the month on a high. End it on a high, I did! Just set a new record for the longest cycle in April. I did 65.46 miles, so just bet last April’s record by 0.9 miles. I did want to do a longer cycle, but my left-hand glove has a big hole in it. So my hand was starting to hurt. Also when the sun went down, it was starting to get a bit on the cold side.

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

Done 113 miles in 2 days on the bike!

All is good right now in the land of cycling. I have done 112.89 miles in just two days. I know of course during the summer. I could do a lot more than that in 2 days. I am still pleased with it. It’s really helped get my monthly total up. It now stands at 394 miles. Making it the second most miles, I have done in a single month this year.

Longest cycle ever in any March

I am well pleased with myself. Just set a set record for the longest cycle, I have ever done in any March. I set the longest one last March (2011), at 60.1 miles. Today I did 65.4 miles! I would have loved to have done a longer one. But I had to get back home to look after next doors dogs.
