First 60+ mile cycle of 2019!

So, so pleased with myself! I ended up doing my first 60+ mile cycle of 2019! This is mainly down, to cycling with a mate. End up doing many more miles, since you, end chatting the whole way and just forget how many miles you’ve done!

Please let me out or I will miss my train!

Please let me out or I will miss my train! Well no need to worry about missing the train. Since it’s only 2:25pm on a Sunday afternoon. This railway station, only gets two trains a day and none on a Sunday. So next train is due at 6:15am on Monday morning… Just hope he comes back with the keys before then…

First cycle in around 10 days

That turned out to be a great cycle! My first cycle in around 10 days! That’s due to weather not being the best and having mini break in Scotland with Nick!

33.53 miles = longest cycle of 2019!

Well that turned out to be a extra good cycle! I was only hoping to do around 20 miles, but ended up doing 33.53 miles, making it my longest cycle of 2019! Also cycled up a hill, I’ve never done before! It was 12%, so looking forward to doing that one again!

Back up-to-date with my cycling!

Happy days! That’s me just about back up-to-date with my cycling. I’ve made up, all the miles, I missed out in January. Last month, I was down 134.9 miles, on the same month of previous year. So far this month, I’ve done 257.8 miles. So 137 more miles than in the same month last year.
