Since it was forecast to be the warmish day of the year so far. I had to make the most of it, by doing the longest cycle of the year! I have a feeling the weather forecast was correct, my phone was showing it was 16C. Which is very good for the UK, late February time.

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

I am, so pleased with myself. I have just, only gone and cycled 5,000 miles this year. Which was my goal for the year. Meaning I have done a whole 1,000 more miles this year, than I did last year (2010). Before anyone asks. No I will not be setting a goal of 6,000 miles for next year.

Since it was a bit on the cold side. I did the last 25.5 miles that I needed to do wearing a wetsuit. A photo of me geared up can be see to the right. More from the set can be found @ www.gordon-valentine.com/zenphoto/me/2011/page/18/.

I only have 332.8 miles left to do this year, then I can say I have done 5,000 miles on the bike in one year. I WILL make it, well that’s if the weather plays ball. I would be pissed off if I only missed 5,000 by lets say 200 miles.

Oh and now I have fully working Internet. It’s time I make up for lost time. And get posting new photos, vlogs etc. So here are the two photos from today’s cycle.
