I did 61 miles today. On my own too. I didn't go out until about 1.30pm and, OMG, was it windy or what?! Along one road where I normally do about 17mph I was managing about 11mph!!! That's not good. To top that, even though the wind was behind me on the way back, I had long knackered myself out and my knees started to hurt, so onto my low gears I had to go to spin it out. Hope I don't start getting knee problems like I had before. Fingers crossed my knees are just a bit strained because my legs are tired.
I even managed to get lost today (".) which was quite interesting; and the sun was shining and it was quite hot, so hopefully that will help manage to correct that stupid suntan I got the other day! (Although nothing seems to have happened yet!)
So, stats for today are:
Miles: 61.36
Average speed: 13.2 mph
Time: 4hr 38 mins
Calories: 2897
Total ascent: 2133 feet

About me
Hi, welcome to my blog. I started riding to work in 2005, then decided to do London to Paris ride for charity in 2007, met some great people, formed a "charity team" with them and haven't looked back since. I've done the Paris ride 3 times now, andplanning on JOGLE at some point, plus if funds allow maybe something more adventurous (the Amazon is currently on the list). I originally started this blog to keep track of training and to let my sponsors see how I was getting on, but now I just post any old crap... all to do with cycling of course (",) and a bit of swimming now.
