Another great cycle with Nick! This time 50 miles!

That was yet another great cycle with Nick, this time we did 50.37 miles (or 51.28 miles), if you go by his Strava. Nick uses it on his phone, so it also records while he walks around! Where has, I use a Garmin GPS on my bike.

Still can’t believe that we did 90.89 over two days! Making it the most miles, I’ve done in two days, in a long time! It also makes it the most miles, Nick’s ever done in two days!

We’re both ready planning out next lot of cycles together, but they will have to wail till next year… Hoping to aim for 60+ miles in a single cycle! Who knows maybe even 100+ miles!! We will just have to wait and see, what happens!!

Great cycle with Nick! Who looks better in Lycra???

Well that was a truly amazing cycle! Even better, I did it with Nick! The route took us from my village by to Grantham Canal, then along Network Cycle Network, route 15, out to Bottesford. Then we cycled back via Belvoir Castle. The route was 40.52 miles!

42 mile cycle with Nick!

That was a great cycle with Nick! We ended up doing 42.71 miles, which was great, since our goal had only been 30 miles! It’s even better, since it’s the second longest cycle, that he’s ever done! Well done Nick!

Nick and myself wetsuited at Old Hunstanton
